It was August when you said you
Would always love me
It was October when you first
Broke my heart
In December I forgave you
Then for four years
We lived in bliss
We swore to marry
That nothing would change
That no one could ever take
Our love away
Then November came
You changed
You found another
Told me he was better
Told me that it was a shame
I didn't die in April
December came
You lead me on
Used me, abused me, ripped me apart
You broke your promise
With no disregard
That you had just broken someone's
Heart...
January came you finally
Left me weeping
You asked for my friendship
But by then my those cold months
Had frozen my heart.
By February my blood had
Ran cold I realized
I could find happiness in being alone.
Now it's May and someone
New has thawed my heart
And restored it to new
The scars from you are
Still there
But they left me more aware
I won't lie an say I don't care
Or that I don't love you anymore
Because it would never be true
But that love is not the same
I appreciate the pain
That drove me insane
Because of you
I know that "love" and "forever"
Are just simple words
That can be said without
Any reason or intention to be kept
And promises are empty.
Because of you
Now I look for the actions of caring
Because of you...
I've learned true love can't
Be spoken but only shown.
