Then and Now

 
As I lay here in my corner. Memories of us they fill my head. You found me when I was broken. Brought me back from almost dead. Turned my frown upside down . You put a smile upon my face. Every night you'd wrap me up. Taking me to my most favorite place. For the first time since the last , I wanted to give my heart away. If I knew then what I know now. I'd still fall for you the same  way. Days they turned into months. Some had no special meaning  to you. That is when I met another , You were no longer the person I knew. The heart that you found broken . The one you started to mend. You knew just what I needed. Then pissed it all into the wind. Now Lying in this bed. It feels like I'm alone. I remember a time , Your arms they felt like home.
