my boyfriend and I just broke up on Wednesday night...I don't think this pain will ever go away.
I loved you more than anything else on Earth.
I gave you my soul when I gave you my heart and my love.
I gave you my first kiss, my first grope, my first sex... all of my firsts are yours.
I thought it would last forever, but you drifted away.
It was gradual over almost a year as you cut yourself off.
Your emotion wasn't in the hugs anymore.
The kisses were shorter, if I could even call them kisses anymore.
The conversations were few and awkward.
I told you I loved you, and you responded "I know" or "you too"
I tried to get closer, you put more distance between us.
I understood your hard work, I understood your need to be independent.
But eventually I got the jist that the break wasn't so you could buy us a house.
This break was to get me to leave you alone.
Seven hundred and fifty miles.
twelve hours to drive.
Every night I dream't of you with a smile,
But eventually I had to lie to myself to make my happiness thrive.
I gave you a way out.
I told you someone asked me on a date, but I wanted your opinion.
We were taking a break, but I hoped you would shout.
"NO, Don't Go! You're My True Love!!!"
Instead I got, "Please go for it, this isn't working out."
Our relationship almost lasted two years.
Two more months and we'd have made it to that oh so special checkpoint.
Instead I fall asleep at night, with nothing but tears.
How do you expect me to live like this, dreaming of a future without you is pointless.
I want you back, but I guess I did something wrong.
Was I clingy, distracting, or just bad in bed?
You once made me a promise, that you'd fight for me against all adversity.
Now I know that your promises mean nothing, and I was a fool to count on them.
I reminded you of that promise, when the distance was getting to you.
You told me you had changed and you were a realist.
You used to tell me you fell asleep at night imagining me wrapped in your arms.
But later I asked you about it, and you said it was childish.
Where did we go wrong?
When did our song's unison turn into a train-wreck of mismatching notes?
I wanted you to be happy, but why can't I be happy too?
Why did you change on me?
Why did our loving bond stop being strong?
