Last Time

Last time you broke my heart, You shattered my dreams and tore my mind apart, Last time I said I love you You pushed me aside and wouldn't let me hug you, Last time I tried my heart died! But like all walls fall, You beat me down and I crawl, This will all crumble as hurt feelings rumble, This won't be the first time I was dissed, And it won't be the last time you'll be kissed, Call for comfort speak for misery, It all fades into history, Last time I apologized it was my lies, That made you realize it was my fault, Last time we took a walk, We heard everything in silence cause we wouldn't talk, Last time I wiped your tears, You had a tender heart my dear, As you were sleeping, I thought of leaving before weeping, As you turned over, I asked myself was it over? Or was I just a crying shoulder? As the night got old I pulled up covers, It seemed you were cold, As I saw my reflection, I realized I was lost with no direction, As I sung the sad song, I thought about what could've gone wrong, As I turned around on bending knee, Not far from the ground I erased a frown, Last time I fell for you, It was a forgive me letter I had to mail to you, Last time I took a look at the pupils in your eyes, It was feelings disquise, Last time I said I miss you, I wanted to kiss you, but didn't wanna risk you

Great use of this form and it reads almost like a song with the "last time" repetitions! Great write to be a feature this week at the Soup. Congratulations, Jerry.
