Unrequited
Sitting there on the bridge
Staring out across the water
Memories of us, playing through my mind
All the colors are faded just like an old movie
I whisper your name into the wind
As a single tear rolls down
How was I supposed to move on
When the only one I trust is with someone else?
You let me down, though I should have known
For what goes up, must come down
And I will admit I did fall pretty hard
But you were so sly in your facade
I didnt notice the edging to your mask
Everything about you was fake, a lie
But I was a foolish girl, how could I not believe?
"I'll never leave your side"
"I'll stay with you forever"
I guess forever is pretty short in your dictionary
But much like a flower can rebloom after a blizzard
My heart can become strong again
For now I shall shelter it and wait for another
Who is willing to endure the struggle
For me, who will no longer give in so easily....
