Seventeen: Middle of nowhere

She shattered my heart, created a masterpiece
I wanted to stop thinking about her
Forget her warm smile and smokey silhouette
Or her small scar behind her ear
That left a deeper scar on my heart
It felt like Tuesday, she walked in my life
And Wednesday, when she just walked out
Leaving me behind, like a lost child
Oh, I hated this city, those broken homes
Champagnes and cigarettes, drank by people
Who were surrounded, yet so alone
Always reminded me of her, she used to tell
This city is so fake, one day we'll run away
She did run away, leaving footprints on my heart
Oh, how I'd love to erase those memories
To never feel again, but just die as we all would
I missed the boy who didn't know love
But just rode bicycle under the hot sun
Nothing ever mattered to him back then, but now
Only thing that mattered was her Mona Lisa's smile
That stole my heart, brutally, completely
How the lake was ruined with memories
Or that rooftop, it felt so lonely
I wanted to ask my life, why it went wrong
Why it just stopped, in the middle of nowhere
I wanted to forget the miracle that happened
Forget that she didn't like Romeo and Juliet
Or how she had said that she believed in me
My heart was sinking, just like titanic
Nothing could be done, I'd lost the battle
Maybe I was already defeated
Yet whenever I look at tulips, her smile appears
Shattering my heart, creating a masterpiece

AUTHOR'S NOTE:
Well, we all must have lost people in our lives at some point.
The way I think, people aren't meant to stay till your whole journey of life. They leave, and it hurts, but it's okay.
I hope we all find our way through this mess and figure out what life is.
