Everything

It started out simple.

Just a kiss and confession of love

Suddenly without even noticing I’d given you my heart

My soul was soon to follow

I held nothing back

You gave me promises and hope

But it was all hollow.

You told me you loved me, no matter what.

But when it got difficult, you left me alone.

You promised forever but gave me a year.

You said let’s be friends, but never come when I call.

Now here I sit, unable to stop crying,

For the whole where my heart was, still sits empty.

I gave you everything held nothing back.

You said I was important, but now you barely look at me.

I was stupid for every believing the bullshit you sold me.

I’m lost and confused just wanting your love.

Longing for a kiss, a touch, even just a hug.

I wait for the day when you change your mind,

Because until then my soul is still in a bind.

I can’t stop loving you no matter how hard I try.

I gave you the power and can’t take it back.

I just want the nightmare to be over.

I want my dreams to begin.

I deserve my happy every after,

If it’s with you all the better,

But if someone else comes calling,

Can you return my heart to the sender?
