i hopped in my car and plugged in my aux. i clicked on the top 50 and started driving. i tapped my fingers on the steering wheel in tune with the music as i softly hummed the lyrics to '7 rings'.

multiple songs played that i didn't know before i pulled up at the starbucks drive thru. i went to pause my music but accidentally skipped the song i was on. my heart stopped as i heard his voice. it was a song i hadn't heard before, meaning it must've been new. i steered out of my place in the queue and parked in a space in the car park instead. i turned up the volume of his song and restarted it so i could listen to it all.

"i think it's time that i be honest, i should've told you not go. thought i knew just what i wanted. i didn't know myself at all."

my breath hitched in my throat as i listened to the lyrics intently. this song is about me.

i had seen that a bunch of his fans had been tweeting at me, but i had ignored them. i just assumed that they would be saying bullshit like:

"please get back together"

"we miss you and shawn"

"you made him so happy"

if i made him so happy, then why did he leave me?

because i had you deserves better
