Thinking my ex boyfriend was "the one" for me,
But then unexpectedly he said goodbye,
Left me on my own to cry.
Never had I felt the pain before,
Wrapping my arms around me,
The tears wouldn't stop falling.
When I met you my whole life changed,
No longer did I cry at night,
For I always looked forward to seeing your smiling face.
Falling deeper and deeper for you,
I realized it was you I didn't want to lose.
Feeling things I had never felt for him before,
Images of him were replaced by you.
Scared of telling you how I feel,
I wasn't ready to be hurt again,
Remembering my broken heart.
So I kept my feelings locked up inside,
But I never did throw away the key.
You told me you liked me,
Much more than just a friend.
How did I know the words you spoke were true?
We met up one night,
Walking through the park.
Your arm round me,
Was this really real?
Not knowing what to say,
All I knew was I wanted you to stay.
You asked me to be your girl,
I said yes without thinking twice.
The pain I had once felt for another,
Well and truly faded.
My heart shattered in to pieces by him,
Now was only a little battered,
But still fragile from his ways.
Now, as I sit here trying to explain how much you mean to me,
All I have to do is imagine you in my mind and I smile.
Looking at the ring you gave me way over a year ago,
Still on the same finger.
You really do mean the world to me,
Whether or not I'm too young to fall in love,
I've fallen for you, head over heels for you,
And even now I can't, I won't stop falling.
*Sorry if this is repetitive to my other poems but my boyfriend really does mean the world to me. People can give us a hard time, say we're not going to last, maybe we will, maybe we won't, but hes helped me through SO much, hes been there when everybody has turned their backs. I love you Greg so much, I don't say it enough to you, thank you for everything. Thank you for being you.*
