It's so hard for me to configure these thoughts into words
Shakespeare, where art thou? I need'st new ones unheard
Am I really in love or am I just scared of someone taking my place?
Why do I always want what I cant have? Do I just like the chase?
I guess that's it, because when I had you I took you for granted
I don't know what I was trying to defend, I should have recanted
Regardless of all that you are and always will be my best friend
I've been thinking for hours upon days about what could've been
The woman of my dreams, I'd do anything just to see that grin
You gave me all your love and now I'm trying to give it back
I don't deserve your trust but can we please make a pact?
Remember when we slept in and missed our first real date?
I've been trying to tell myself its all for a reason, maybe it's fate?
But I don't believe in that, that's me trying to take the easy way out
Because if it were truly up to fate then we'd be together no doubt
I think you can control your fate with small daily actions
Lately it seems like we've only been trying to get reactions
One day I'm your soulmate, the next you won't even hug me. . .
I imagined us married at 60, how does love turn to war so quickly?
Good grief, It's a shame the way we break each others hearts
I'm so sorry, I should've always treated you the way I did at the start
I've said that too many times. . . sorry is my favorite word
So, I can't even blame you if this poem goes unheard
People've been saying "don't date someone unless you love yourself"
What does that mean? What if that someone helps you love yourself?
What if they brought you out of the depths and showed you the light?
What if they're who showed you the garden beyond wrong and right?
Everything's so complicated now, it used to just be black and white
You can't build Rome in a day, but it can be destroyed overnight...
