Leaving Her Lonely

He's not hers
But he's perfect for her in every way
He's not hers
But he knows someday, he'll go away

She fights with every ounce of energy
To make him stay
Subconsciously knowing, eventually
He'll go away

She admits constantly
She loves him more than any before
She so fell hard, and honestly
He's it for her; nothing more

She plans her future with him
She fantasizes a life
With him
To be his wife

He's not hers
And it will hit like a ton 
When he's gone
And she's just one

He tries to break away easy
He's finding it impossible
He hopes her pain occurs briefly
But it's a terrible obstacle 

Her world will crash
Her dreams will shatter
He will feel like trash
His words will only make her sadder

Love is a b*tch at times
Learn from it; take note
It's the only thing that's both
Poison and antidote

Her pain is his only regret
He would absorb it all if he could
His future, without her, is set
Do everything he can? he should

Love is a b*tch and he's not hers
He hates these questions without answers

His path is already chosen
So with a bitter tasting spoon
He'll give her the poison
And hope she gets the antidote soon
