I should have known!
An heavenly being, send from above you were
Packed with goodness, and sweetness bewildering
I remember the kisses, sweeter than honey
And the way you’d hold me, promising me heavens
And the spark in your eyes, that tortured me to say yes
Yes, I do, and always will, and forever will!
You said that I was your type
Meaning that we were set for each other in this life
And that you’d never think of another like me
Raising my hopes beyond where I could ever be
And that you’ll always love me, always
That only death will do us apart
You said I was the apple of your eye
So I wonder how you are able to see without me now
That I was the pace setter of your heart
What meant that we’d never ever be apart
And that this life would mean nothing without me
A cliché, everyone uses it, I should have known!
I fell for you, like leaves fall from branches, helplessly
And loved you, like sand loves the sea
This consuming passion, that I couldn’t see another
Not when you were clogging my wide open eyes
Holding on to my one and only, the one in a million
What turned out to be, the one with a million others
You always called to wish me good night
When at the moment you were kissing another good night
And said you thought about me always
While making love to another one
And my friends telling me to hold on, That
“Every cloud has a silver lining” Yet another cliché, I should’ve known
I wonder how honey turned out like bitter wine
How the prince charming turned out abhorrent
But, though broken, shuttered, I’ve learned to move on
Chanting one step at a time, every memory leaving me to only wonder
Have you left the one you left me for?
