Lonesome Love

I remember a time now a distant memory but you were once mine it started sweet but went sour like lime we first met I witnessed a crime you stole my heart oh what a time life had moved forward so did our decisions some good some bad but with one I was especially glad you were all that I ever wanted all I needed to have one month till you share my last name I may not be next to you but my feelings have not changed I just wished yours hadn't you spoke words of great sadness distance had taken its toll I couldn't be there when you needed me most you found someone else to hold you close I wasn't the one anymore you both watched as my heart slowly shattered and broke. my emotions were your toys jealousy took over while you had your fun I was manipulated by love now you say you need a real man huh months passed and here you crawl back to me you say you love and always thought about me but that was bullshit that even I could see you used me you lied to me you tarnished my ideal of love you now realized you messed up these lies I am above so I'll spread my wings and fly like a lonesome dove
