My love

One night I met a guy,
when I first met him,
it didn't think he was anything special.

As time progressed,
I realized there was more to him,
than I'd seen at first.

He was a son, a brother,
and a marine,
he also wanted to be a boyfriend.

As time went on,
we decided to give it a try,
we enjoyed ourselves fully.

He always put me first,
He had me on this pedestal,
He told me everyday how much I meant to him.

Yet there was a problem,
our families,
they were way different.

Mine liked him but thought I could do better,
and his liked me but,
I couldn't get along with them.

I was influenced by my family,
which now I regret because
I had to let him go.

I now think of him almost daily,
I miss him so much,
I wish I didn't depend on my parents.

If I could take care of myself,
it would be different,
I would have kept that man, my love.
