Was he ever the one

Was he ever the one
It felt like true love
His eyes are an ocean
And I was drowning

He was hard to hold on to
I had to let go
It hurt when he left
Like a dagger into my chest
An open wound too big too close

Pain was all I felt
It seemed like it would last forever
I couldn’t close this wound by myself
I needed help

Now I know it was never real
He left with no care
The wound would never heal properly
The pain will always be there
His eyes were an ocean
And I was drowned
