1 year ago we were as close as strangers, 

unknowing of the sequence of events that would take place

 

6 months ago we were spending every last second in each other's presence 

not caring at all what the world thought of us

agreed on everything, held the same ideals and world views

naïve to the slightest possibility that something could break "us"

 

3 months ago was the start of a new year, something new

my excitement blossomed, believing i would conquer it with you

 

1 month ago my whole world froze

a deflowering of my heart and soul

a loss of feeling and persona

and your once gentle heart turned to coal

 

2 weeks ago those similarities were swirled to dust

as you believed him, joined with them, and betrayed my trust

 

1 week ago i tried to play pretend

wanting to rekindle that unimaginable relationship,

well unfortunately that ship had sailed

off to who knows where, i couldn't get a solid grip

 

yesterday i couldn't stop thinking: 

"why don't you try walking in my shoes for awhile?

and realize that with all this criticism it's near impossible to even fake a smile?"

that singular thought could just rotate around my spinning head for a century

 

and today i was missing you again until i realized this whole time

i was just missing your heart wrenching everlasting memory
