I often wonder

What you usually ponder

Do you even miss

My loving caress?


Used to be so strong

Had quit holding on

What's the reason

For this sudden action?


You got tired

With the shots I fired

Whenever we fight

Nothing is right


We hurt each other

With the words we utter

Playing games

Shit's the same


I tried my best

To fix my mess

Saying "I'm sorry"

Never enough of an apology


Forced myself to remember

Why we liked each other

Everything got blurry

Got a crazy love story


I used to believe

That you'll never leave

You made me feel

Your love is real


You wrote me letters

Made my chest flutter

Never thought that feeling

Is only fleeting


You gave up

Never had the gut

To be the man

Unique from everyone


The story of us

Turned into dust

Burned into ashes

Now in small pieces


Your name

Will forever stain

My broken heart

That you ripped apart.
