Story of My Life

A tear fell today, The first one in a while. I had made a promise To only think of us a smile. I'd say I'm sorry, And I won't do it again, But I'm sure I'd be lying, Because when I think I can't, I can. I can still cry a little And miss our happiness, Especially on days or in moments That are even close to this. Every night I dream Of when we'll be happy together And every day I wake To the reality that you want her. You tell me everyday it's temporary. You swear that it's all for the best, But it hurts because I swear you're lying. I think you are just like the rest. I thought you were better than that. Sometimes, I think I still do, But then a day like today comes up. Story of my life. It's nothing new. You'd think I'd be used to it. I'd adjust to ruining my own happiness, But I honestly don't think I could ever. I don't want to get used to this.
