I Regret This Story

Of course, it happened again,
I let my guard down and now I have to reconstruct.
Everything thats been done,
everything thats sucked.
This is a story,
a story I regret.
The feelings that I felt, 
has now left me in debt.
The beginning was great,
the beginning was alright,
It started pretty good, 
we didnt even fight.
I thought I finally had it,
I thought everything was okay.
Having that person,
that would always make my day.
The jump my stomache made,
when I'd just hear your name,
has now turned into something
thats just a little too much pain.
Here's where the story rises,
here's where it falls apart.
It's when my soul's on fire,
it's when he breaks my heart.
Things got to confusing,
I couldn't control it anymore.
Thoughts swirling in my head,
we are getting to the core.
Feelings are now lost,
and I don't know what to do.
My friends told me the opposite,
I wish it was all true.
Temperatures are rising,
in a very wrongful way.
I have so much to write down,
I have so much to say.
I can actually feel the pain,
in my chest where I once felt happy.
Now I listen to sad songs,
when I once choose love and sappy.
What happened to this couple?
What happened to the hope?
I don't feel myself around you,
and now I just can't cope.
This story is nearly done,
even though I still don't know what to do.
I want to say it's over,
I want to say we're through.
But for some odd reason,
I still keep clinging on.
It's hurting me so much more,
but still to you I am drawn.
This is far from a fairy tale,
everything won't work out right.
It's not a happy ending,
I can't fall asleep tonight.
