Favorite Quote:
"You've got to love what's lovable, and hate what's hateable. It takes brains to see the difference."
- Robert Frost


You talk and I listen
It’s one in the same
Yet the important things are what you lock away
You ask if I trust you
I say one hundred percent
You told me the same
But yet as I listen to you now
I know there’s something I missed
For if you trusted me I would have known how miserable you’ve been
How do I know this hasn’t been a lie?
Three weeks you didn’t tell me you thought you weren’t the guy
I guess some good has come from this
I realized how much I can care
No matter what happens
There will be a spot in my heart for you
Even if it didn’t end up how we wanted it to

This poem is about my break up with my first love. We didn't know if we wanted to end things or not.
