Something Immortal

Too Late

You saw her and immediately fell in love.
She was just standing there, looking at her book.
But to you she was the most beautiful thing around.

After a while you worked up the courage to tell her.
To tell her how you felt. And she accepted it.
So you had her.
She was yours.
You could call her your love.
And you were happy.

For that time being at least.

She put everything into your relationship.
But you were getting bored.
Tired of her.
She wasn't as interesting as you thought.
And not as beautiful up close apparently.

So you left her.

And she broke.
You didn't just break her heart.
You broke her mind.
Her soul.
And her courage to do anything.
With anyone.

But you didn't care.

You saw her in the halls.
But she wasn't the same person.
She was sad.
Tired.
And she had a constant tear stained face.
Like she cried every night.

Then you felt bad and started to miss her smile.

And as she grew stronger from you leaving
You grew weaker.
Lonelier.
Every night you started to miss her more and more.
But with her it was the opposite.
Every night she missed you less and less.
You wanted her back.

But you were to late.

A few months have passed.
And she has moved on.
But you are breaking more as the days go on.
Realizing you really did love her.
You loved her with all your heart.
But you didn't treat her right.
You left her.

And she moved on.

She's happy now.
Happy with someone else.
Someone that wont leave her because he's bored.
'Cause he never thinks she's boring.
He thinks everything about her is amazing.
Just like you do.

But the difference is....you realized it too late.

But you found that out too late...
