You hold her hand in yours,
Your smile blissful, all knowing,
And she is giddy beside you,
Her face radiant, glowing,
I smile politely and excuse myself
And when I'm alone i fall apart,
I remember when it was my hand you were holding,
When you possessed my heart.
We chose to remain friends,
No hard feelings or hate,
Brushing past all of our previous promises,
When our meeting seemed like such fate,
We gave each other's stuff back,
Your toothbrush, my shirt,
Pretended we never existed,
So why does it still hurt?
Maybe it's because I remember your soft touch,
And you smile that was just for me,
Or that I see you with her,
Being what we used to be,
And maybe it's because you forgot me,
And those nights we laid side by side,
I was replaced so quickly,
That it could be a matter of pride.
But if I was being honest,
With myself and with you,
I know that it's really because
I thought that we'd pull through,
We could talk for hours,
About such random stuff,
Never getting bored,
But I guess that wasn't enough.
