Once upon a time, you said you loved me
You said you’d stay with me
And hold me dear.
But that was only that once
And, like that time, you soon moved along
And said the people were right
But the time was wrong.
Years passed and you left again
This time for far away
I tried to keep our connection strong
But i could already feel it fray
The words you spoke, of the love of a friend
were sweet and kind and comforting
But your actions: not caring, not calling, not mailing
Told me everything your words really meant
Again years passed, and though you moved away further, never did you leave my heart or mind.
I love you still, to this day, Angel, but I had to give you back your time.
Because though you said this wasn’t what you wanted, and that I was bright and special and good.
You pushed me away and moved me aside and made me unnecessary as soon as you could.
So now I’m alone, as I always knew I’d be, but I had to try and give my all
No regrets, just pain
At the loss of my forever one
And that time when I believed the lie of love.
