The way you loved me. 

The way you so carefully loved me.

Hopefully loved me.

Loved me because you loved me. 

For me.

Ours.

Mine.

 

Loved 

Because love no longer applies 

Because past tense is all there is

Because past is past and there is no future

Because there is no future this and present is quickly becoming past

Becoming a past that was fine

A past that was mine.

 

They said if it ain't broke don't fix it but I tried to fix it and it broke.

Broke briskly inyto a billion pieces of broken love.

A love that was fine.

A love that was mine.

 

Mine until I pushed it away

Mine until I became scared

Mine until I needed you 

Mine until I couldn't stand you 

Mine until I missed you 

Mine until I broke you 

 

Broken

Not you really... It. 

I broke it. 

Smashed it. 

Into a billion pieces.

A billion pieces of broken love.
