HIM

I used to love a beautiful nerdy boy

He was my everything, my one and only

Being honest, I’d never thought he’d leave me lonely

He took my trust and he took my love

Black turned the wings of a dove

I sit at night and I still cry

Remembering every sweet lie

He said I was his life

That one day I would be his wife

I could the warning bells chime

But I thought they would stop in time

With every moment I wished for a kiss

There was another person that I would miss

I find it hard to believe that it wasn’t meant to be

After all I remember when he said he loved me

I remember every kiss, every moment

Every time my heart broke thinking of what he’d stolen

I remember every word, every sweet lie

I remember the night it happened, how I sat in bed

And began to drown my pillow as I started to cry

I built up my walls again

This time, I would make them stand tall

I closed my eyes and my mind

They’d never ever fall

And my feelings would be hard to find

He took my love, my trust, my life

I took his nothing, not a single thing

Without him, I’m broken yet free

Without him, I’m just me
