Heartbreak Envy

Your relationship is through
Don't ever want to see him
Your heart is broken in a million pieces
The light on your world has gone dim

The funny part about your situation
I envy what you're going through
With what I went through with my first love
I'll never have the decisions you do. 

You can start it all over
But this time be no more than friends
You can choose to call him tomorrow
Or make the choice to never see him again. 

I don't have the choice to see him
Not until my days on Earth here are done
His love, his touch, his voice, his kiss
Are all stored in memories of our laughter and our fun. 

I never really got my ending
I'll never know if we'd break up, or if it'd last.
I'll never have that closure you received
I'll never be able to willingly put him in my past. 

So as you cry and mope around, 
My sympathy will still be with you.
However the closure you received with him,
To get that with my first love, there isn't anything I wouldn't do.
