Story of Us

We met when we weren't looking,
We found love we didn't expect,
We made happiness I never imagined,
Surprised by what came next,

Started off as hardly friends,
But grew to something so much more,
You opened up a place inside my heart,
When no one else could find the door,

Pointless talking for hours and hours,
Laughing and complaining too,
One day I stumbled upon a confused feeling,
And I told you I loved you,

Surprised that I had let it slip,
More surprised you said you loved me too,
Dreams and fantasies of a life together,
And a promise I could always be with you,

Love-sick crushes turned pure and real,
Neither of us could get enough,
Little did I know that the other end
Was having it real rough,

Because what he forgot to mention,
Is that, I wasn't the only one,
He kept it as a secret from me,
In fear that we would be done.

One night I said I knew too much,
And he made me tell him what it was,
I told him the things I found,
And he told me he had another love,

Caught off guard and so confused,
My body slowly began to crumble,
Holding on for dear life to what was left,
But soon taking a major stumble,

He said that I would get what I wanted,
That he could almost guarantee
It was foolish of him to sit there and lie,
But more foolish of me to believe,

After one year of nothing but happiness,
Came four straight months of unbearable pain,
Through many talks with wrong words said,
And countless tears that felt like rain,

I fell into a dream come true,
The only thing that I had wanted for so long,
I got the chance to come see you,
I never thought it would go wrong,

But the other decided to pry back in,
A week before I would be on my way,
She said you'd drop me in all forms
After Id come and gone away,

Confronting you about it,
You gave an excuse I didn't believe,
But being so in love with you,
It was hard to understand Id been deceived,

You see, him and I are very far apart,
Countless numbers of miles away,
And by the time I got to him,
I knew it was much too late,

Now that I am back here alone,
Ive had all this time to just remember,
All the memories that we had,
And the amazing day we had together,

And now I realize that I'm nothing,
No more long talks and dreams,
No more whispered I love yous,
They're over-powered by our screams,

No more perfect days to live,
Only days full of my tears and pain,
No more happiness and heart to hearts,
In my mind is where it remains,

If you find yourself one lonely night,
With nothing better to do,
Remember the memories we created,
And how much I loved you,

Because I know that when the hurt is gone,
After I get the strength to FINALLY leave,
I know you'll realize everything I said was true,
And you were so wrong to NEVER believe,

You may find that you miss me more,
Than you ever imagined you could,
And I know you'll never try to fix it,
But in your heart, you'll know you should,

I'm leaving now because its not worth the pain,
And I realize that there's no sense of closure,
But no matter what you say or do from this point,
You and I … we're really over.
