As I look back through messages
I am shocked at how cold you were
Then you seemed warm and perfect
My optimistic mind so sure
Now truth is clearer than glass
The reason you sent compliments
Was because you felt guilty, hiding
A flood of flaws under false confidence
The instant attraction was undeniable
We have chemistry, my grave mistake
Believing I needed you to be whole
Now I see I am not a half, without you I won't break
The butterflies felt were real
As were fireworks when we would touch
Everything else I'm sorting through
I cannot figure out as much

As I look back through messages
I am shocked at how cold you were
Then you seemed warm and perfect
My optimistic mind so sure
Now truth is clearer than glass
The reason you sent compliments
Was because you felt guilty, hiding
A flood of flaws under false confidence
The instant attraction was undeniable
We have chemistry, my grave mistake
Believing I needed you to be whole
Now I see I am not a half, without you I won't break
The butterflies felt were real
As were fireworks when we would touch
Everything else I'm sorting through
I cannot figure out as much
Its hard to dissect pieces of the past and come up with no answers
