Hitting the Bottom

by Brooke   Jul 14, 2008


We hit the bottom
of this once perfect dream
who knew it would come to this
the point where we don't even speak?
We blamed each other for becoming this way
casting a bitter shadow over the memories.
We never solved anything
you just walked away
hoping it would get better.
Are you aware of how that made me feel?
you left it all behind
because you had different goals
you changed your mind about me
in just one night.
I didn't know I had done you wrong
I guess you just got tired of me
and you needed something else
something I unknowingly couldn't give you.
I'm sorry I wasn't good enough for you
I thought we were fine
but I guess I was wrong.
My heart aches being without you
I miss you so much
even though it's not right.
I miss hearing your voice at night
along with everything we used to have
and it's killing me not having it.
It's hard to not remember
and to forget it's not the same
but how can I resist?
when you're still hanging around
and how can I move on,
when I still want to be with you?
You were everything I wanted
with you life seemed so perfect
and in your arms it felt so right.
I was so open with you
and felt safe to show you my heart
you acted like you cared
but it was all a lie.
Your words "I will never hurt you"
oh, how I wish they would reassure me now
but they remain the empty promise
that I stupidly believed so long ago.
We were so close
I felt that nothing
would ever break us apart.
But just look at us now
we don't even speak
we can't even look at each other
and it's tearing me up inside.
You were everything to me
but you decided to change
letting go was the hardest thing
I ever had to do
but I can't move on
because we never said goodbye.
But I'm over it
over you, and your immature friends
I don't really care what you think of me
it's too late to make a difference
I want you to know
that I'm happy for you
was she worth it?
I guess I wasn't able to make it enough for you
and knowing how quickly I was replaced
is such a slap to the face
what did I ever do so wrong to YOU?
it's so hard
but you made it this way
I never wanted it to be like this.
Looking back
it's hard to remember how it was
your laugh, your smile
how close you would hold me;
it haunts me
but now it's vague
like a dream that never happened.
I still miss you
like I always will
I will remember you as the wonderful person
that you used to be.
Not like this.
You're a different person now
and that I will never miss.
