You realized your life was over when she walked away
There was no time to grab her shoulder
To turn her around and smack her with your lips
There was not enough “I’m sorry”s in the world to fix this
She doesn’t want you now even though she thought
There wasn’t a world without you before
Too much time has passed and as you wait she falls in love
And gets everything you thought she deserved but was too scared
To give
She had never smiled so beautiful or glowed so bright
When she was with you because she knew
It wasn’t forever even though it could have been
If she didn’t become a woman in one week
She cried harder then the worst of storms and you hid
Behind a stools and strangers to forget
One day she realized what she wanted
A quiet morning she left what she loved to move on
Running against the current she fought to not look back
But she was being sucked back like a vacuum that you were controlling
Pictures of regrets flashed into your head and you realized why
She wanted to go.
You let her
she is safe now
And you are a man
That will always be just
Misunderstood.
Thank you for everyone who clicks on my butterfly when they see it!
