One Chance

What’s your problem?

I know I did nothing at all again.

You have forgotten the words

Left inside my head, before I left

You said everything would be alright.

And now two months later, we barely speak.

My emotions have increased

As yours seem to deplete.

The notion that Opposites attract

Is what draws me to believe
That we could be more than a regular fling.

I knew all along

That you were to good to be true.

We were broken the same way

And looked for the truth

In whatever we could find

Whatever we could do.

But somehow my search

Always led me back to you

You say you want to move on

And I understand completely.

I don’t want to waste my time

On letters soon to be forgotten

Thrown away by years and years of lies.

Because remember in the park

You held me tight and whispered from your heart

The words that your future was mine.

Looking back I wish I held onto that

I wish I had believed in one chance.
