With quivering hands I pull you back to explain,
I know you don't want to have anything to do with me as you shake me off your body.
But as you do so my heart tears apart once my eyes hold yours, seeing through your pain.
I know for certain now that you'd never want to have anything to do with me as you storm off the lobby.
What you don't know however is that you left with my smile and thoughts of you only in my brain.
I feel my face shrinking into a frown,something that was foreign to me since I met you.
For a second I don't know what to do, because I don't know who I am without you.
I try to take my mind on a walk to my past, to the girl I was before you,but all I see is the emptiness of the void I can almost physically feel because my heart doesn't remember her.
I replay the scene in my head where I watch you go,
as I let myself slide slowly to the floor.
Deep in me I wonder, Which piece of me should I pick up first?
I feel my breath slowly speed up along with the rising and falling of my chest.
Why is it that when you like a boy nobody teaches you what you're up against?
