You plucked
A beautiful flower
Devored its pureness
With no intentions of sowing
More seeds to grow
You wanted to use
Till you
Couldnt use no more
See you spelled
Love M-I-N-E
I was nothing more than
Untouched territory
Sort of a tarnish trophy
And if I smiled and obliged
You would show me
Shine me
Mold me
Into the possibilities
I could be
But just couldnt get me to be her
And here I was thinking
I was good enough
The one that got away
Left for a reason
But you couldnt see it
So you chased her
While I chased you
My heart just couldnt let you go
It wouldnt say no
I searched for yesterdays
To duplicate
And the more I remembered
The more I forgot
The way it actually felt
I was looking for comfort in old pictures
And songs
When I physically had you
And still felt lost
So I convinced myself
That it just couldnt have been for nothing
Then our love became a waiting game
See I wanted you to be the same
And too you I had changed
Because I wasnt the
Same naive woman
Thirsty for love you had met
You dried me and I canned
My true emotions
Thinking it would save us
But how in the hell can you
Lose something you never had?
