But I Did

Relentless hearts sleeping estranged for the night, Running from the truth, and shedding tears along the way. From the very beginning I was there, and like a circus you put on an act. Through space and performance the blank empty stage stood, and I was there alone. Im forever yours, faithfully will I be is what left your lips, just to be regretted down the road. I wonder what made you say that? Now it seems like we are two strangers, not speaking, not gazing, not holding, no recognition of the past memoirs. I fell for you, opened up to you, I let everyone who tried to slip in test you. You fell for the bait and hooked to the line, yet still I stayed. When I first cast a glimpse at your face, I saw a dream of wonder, Now that dream that made me strong, Has turned into a nightmare that tears at my heartstrings. What is left to say about the realization I discovered? You were not ready for a relationship ever after a year. Feelings were tossed in and minds were boggled. You flenched at the mere thought of commitment. I cant seem to get over exactly how strong I was, To bring myself to question you, To let you go.....but I did.
