she said she loves,
heart flutters like doves.
He said he loved,
Did he know what love was?
Tears in her eyes
As her face hits the pillow .
Lets out low sigh
Black mascara on the linen.
Lowered eyes faint cries
Can still feel the room spinning.
Quivered lips, heart skips
For little more than a minute.
She said she loved him and she meant it,
He said he loved her but probably didn’t.
She can’t figure why he did it,
Can’t finger his intentions.
Not to mention finding forgiveness
when the pain remains vivid.
Dried eyes, was she blind?
Something she could’ve predicted?
Something that she missed,
Did she see a lie and live it?
NO.
She confronted him,
She wanted him to admit it…
That shit was different,
Something missing…
She threw a fit
When he didn’t.
——————————————————–
He felt like shit when he did it.
Heart swells, breaths heavy…
She’s gonna feel like I hid it,
Tears flow, broke levy.
Low sigh, no lie
He loved her/“all or nothing” was what she wanted.
Tears in her eyes
The last time she confronted.
Overpowered butterflies
fluttering round in his stomach.
Now he had done it.
She was his world, his sun
But he just needed space.
Earth quaked, hurt aches
Gravity pulls rain down his face.
Streams fall to his shoulders…
He wishes he could hold her…
But he watched her shoulder grow colder
When he told her.
A whirlwind of emotions
Ravage the landscape.
Winds in the ocean
Love boats in its wake.
And there he lay, washed up on the shore
Vowing to drown in love no more.
Decision like a Kamikaze mission,
Deep incisions/vision blurs…
He ruptured his heart
the moment he broke hers.
He thinks….
He should’ve stayed alone from the start.
‘Cuz every time he touches a heart…
He crushes a heart.
Every time he takes a heart…
He breaks a heart.
Days are like those waves…
They ebb…they flow.
He will always love her–
Wherever her ship goes…
Wherever the wind blows…
More than he shows…
More than she knows.
Love can be a dream,
But its seas are seldom serene.
