"Life's too short to be unhappy, You have to take the good with the bad; smile when you're sad. Love what you got and always remember what you had. Always forgive; never forget, learn from your mistakes, but never regret." -Author Unknown


We were seven, when we first met,
Your smile and eyes, were hard to forget,
I gave you all my candy hearts, on Valentine's day,
But you didn't eat one, you gave them all away,
I smiled and told myself it was okay; I lied.
And when I got home that day; I cried.

The other day, I was looking through photos I had,
I came across one with us looking sad,
I remember that day like it was last night,
It was the day we had our first fight,
I smiled and told myself it was okay; I lied.
And when I got home that day; I cried.

It was the day, we had our first dance,
Across the room from you, I was in a trance,
I took a deep breath and walked your way,
But when I got to you - it was too late.
You were dancing with her and having fun,
My heart felt like it weighed a ton.
I smiled and told myself it was okay; I lied.
And when I got home that day; I cried.

You looked at her, that way you do,
Why can't you look at me like that too?
When I see you two, my heart aches,
When you talk about her, my heart breaks.
I smiled and told myself it was okay; I lied.
And when I got home that day; I cried.

Before I knew it, it was your wedding day,
You never did look at me that way,
When you two kissed, the whole crowd clapped,
And that is when - my heart finally snapped.
I smiled, and stood off to the side.
And when I got home that day?
I cried.
