Once upon a time

by Ali   May 31, 2008


I remember once upon a time you told me I had your heart forever.
You said it was all mine and I could do what ever I wanted with it.
I could stomp on it, rip it to pieces, throw it away or just hold it close to mine.
Those were your exact words.
In return I gave you my heart.
It wasn't an exchange, It was a desire.
I wanted to have each other hearts, it meant something to me.
And I never once hurt you. I never lied or cheated.
I held your heart as close as I could, every finger grasped with all its strength.
I didn't mean for your heart to go, I prayed with all my soul it wouldn't
but still somehow it snuck away
I remember the nights you held me in your arms,
The mornings we wrestled and threw pillows back and fourth.
I remember your laugh and your smile and the way you looked into my eyes.
I'll never forget you or a moment I had with you.
I know you didn't mean to but you shattered all my dreams
Yet still I love you with every single broken piece.
