i've known you all my life,
or have i?
learning new things everyday
like, maybe it's not so bad,
you knowing about my mistakes,
and what i really do on those nights i'm out late
and maybe it's actually good,
you seeing my tears,
and hearing about the things that make me
sad, or mad.
it's just too bad
that i never seem to learn enough
in time
before it's too late,
and hurts,
like her.
hi, hello, nice to meet you.
a heads up would've been nice
was caught by surprise
seeming as words never passed your lips,
just to let me know;
a picture. on a phone.
it wasn't even yours.
was i even supposed to see it?
oops.
learning new things everyday,
like maybe i don't want to know
what you do on those nights you're out late,
or that maybe i'm no longer the reason
for those smiles on your face
and apparently this is round two?
who knew?
hi, hello, nice to meet you.
well, it would have been nice,
except i never did meet her
or the one before.
i've known you all my life,
or have i?
hard to know if i've been mistaken all this time,
or if you've become someone new.
either way, i don't want to be rude:
hi, hello, nice to meet you.
