AGAIN

April 20, 2010

We used to be perfection
We were both moving in the right direction
Do you think we could be that way
Before the fire smokes us out?
Because I know I don't.
We lost everything we stood for
Took everything away that we couldn't ignore
Thank you for the information
Now I'm going to let you go
And now you know
The story of a love
That was lost and never found
The ice is about to smother us
I welcome it, and you whisper that my heart and the ice are one
Well congratulations, you've won
You've lost me, and now you can go back to her AGAIN
After you lied and promised never again
Look at the treasure you burned
I would have loved you all my life if you hadn't broken my heart
And destroyed my view of life, and of myself
AGAIN
We run and run away from it all
Because we know we're about to fall
AGAIN
We can quote the song “Forever and Always” a million times
But we will never be the same
We are so alike that we're different
We keep holding on to the same old tragedy
And we never keep our sanity
Maybe I'm trying to convince myself more than you
But then, what have I said that ISN'T true?


The author's comments:
This is about a relationship I had. We were so good together, we had so much in common, except he kept cutting me down, making me crawl back to him because of the way he replayed my words to make them sound so...stupid. It was like I had to go back because I felt like I couldn't find anyone better. When I woke up and realized what he was doing, I broke it off, clean and simple, and his begging and insulting combined didn't have any effect anymore. I was tired of being the bad guy. There'll be alot more poetry about this boy, too, so I can get all of the bad feelings out.
