Letter To My Ex
  This is a letter to my ex
  A sorry for the time I poured
  My heart and soul
  Into a next
  My heart and soul
  That was locked in hers
  I pretended it was his
  And that he was the cure
  But he wasn't
  I tried to believe it was okay
  Because she had her
  But it wasn't until she gone away
  And eventually he gone away too
  That I realized the pain I put you through
  Don't pay mind to the nights
  I fell asleep in tears
  Or the nights I didn't sleep at all
  Because when she left me
  For her
  I blamed myself
  For everything
  And I know that it was a regret she made
  After all those months
  My heart called out her name
  We'd say nothing
  And walk past each other like nothing
  Because what was left was nothing
  Yet everything was left to say
  But lets not discuss the words we failed to say
  Lets discuss the words we actually said
  Because in the end of the maze
  We were in
  We were successful in falling in love
  Yet again
  Something told me that
  This time would be different
  And it was,
  Different in the most beautiful way imagined
  And also the worst way
  Because first cam elove
  Then came tragedy
  And tragedy was just a pinch
  Of the mess we made
  When our love
  Became a battlefeild
  And when all was said and done
  We'd stay hand in hand
  Walking around the world
  As if it were ours
  I truly believed that
  Nothing could tear us apart
  That forever could be written
  Through our names in the stars
  That the promised sealed
  In the ring that hung around my neck
  Would always never be broken
  But June came around again
  And it was okay
  Great actually
  Something about August
  Pushed us away
  Not too far
  But enough to take a break
  See I knew the break was
  Put in place
  Because it was needed
  But I read break and thought break-up
  Acted as if she wasn't my girlfriend
  When she needed me the most
  I was giving her space
  She asked for it
  I just didn't see that it wasn't
  The space she wanted
  But what other space can you give
  And I blamed myself
  For not knowing the type of space
  Conversations got weirdly anit-social
  In a matter of seconds
  Where we stood wasn't hand in hand
  But walking back to each others' hands
  Slowly... still walking
  Atleast that's what I thought
  I guess I was walking on my own
  Towards her
  And she was walking away
  And while I pretended I was okay
  She was really leaving me
  She asked me to wait
  To put what we had on hold
  Because of yet another girl
  I thought I could
  But I was wrong
  I felt it was easier to
  Let her go
  Than stay to wait
  So goodbye came
  To end the mess
  We've created through
  Our steps...
  And no matter how much I wish
  Things could've been fixed
  I was glad
  And maybe a little relieved
  That we were finally
  Put to rest.
