Tragic and true
I believed in you
you showed your true colors
I dismissed them like all the others
a facade I placed over your actions
as I dreamed of only the fractions
of time I spent with you, those were times I wouldn’t feel blue
for whatever reason
your presence distant or near
I felt a sensation of revere
You were so hardworking
so kind and gentle with the kids
you admired my smile and looks
with those eyes that had me hypnotized
your words pulled me in and
wrapped me tight
your mind wouldn’t let me out of sight
It must have been fate
two souls so different but
we loved the same music
and that’s how we met, hey?
at a place where our favorite songs played
we could talk for hours, til the end of the day
you were the reason I looked forward to waking up early and the reason I didn’t mind staying up late
you were always my favorite date
My love for you grew stronger
as you pulled away
I tried to ignore it
and gave silly reasons for my dismay
our talks became chats
and our chats become short
I wondered why I was living in such a romantic distort
I knew very well what was happening
but denial flowed through
as if I wasn’t picking up a single clue
you were cold and angry
and I was sad and blue
you smiled at my misery
and I still stuck to you like glue
I don’t know how you had me acting
like such a fool
I shrugged my shoulders and let the story play on
there were other days were things couldn’t go wrong?
that was never the case
I became angry and bitter
hurt and sick
I lost myself in this fucking prick
I became the monster
even though that wasn’t the truth
you painted an illusion
for your friends in that booth
I was always so kind, caring, and loved you so much
but you were never present, never there,
always out of touch
you could be there for others
but your girlfriend, that was too much
so, I ended things since you were already gone
you dismissed yourself but still held on
I was tired and weary of this game we
were playing
there was no point in staying
we said our goodbyes so quickly
and cold. It’s as if our hearts were filled with mold
the life of our relationship had expired
and it was time to throw it away before it became even more dire.
The poison was bleeding through
And our hearts became sour right on cue
It took me awhile to cut you out my life
to detach every string
but I did
this mariposa flew away from you kid.
goodbye, farewell, adieu.
to every single piece of you.
