you woke me up this morning
with a serious look upon your face...
"i have something to tell you"
familiar words that always put a knot in my stomach.
of all the things you could've said
you said the one thing i dreaded the most
"i want to be single"
seems a simple enough request, hell we've been together for 2 1/2 years but i wanted to just wave my hands like a priest and absolve you.
i wanted to just say "done, you're single"
like i could wave a magic wand and it would happen...
but it's never so easy.
i always knew this day would come.
i always thought that you were too young.
4 years difference, doesn't seem like much.
but my level of commitment, you could never touch.
you thought that you could handle it, forever doesn't seem that long.
where does that leave us, am i just supposed to pick up and move on?
sure it doesn't bother me, of course i can be strong.
i can be cold.
i can be hard.
i can be stone.
it's been awhile but i think i remember how.
last time i was hurt, nothing like this... nothing at all, but it does seem somehow familiar.
hardly deja vu, but pain is pain.
that numb shattered feeling, i never thought it would come from you.
if i can stay mentally strong i can get through this.
if i don't break down it'll still all seem ok.
the sun will still shine.... a little duller
the sky will remain blue.... but not like your eyes
the stars will still shine, just not as bright as when you were sharing them with me.
this is not the end, but it is the beginning of the end...
