Letting go all I know is difficult
Didn't expect you to leave
Looking back on that fateful day I gave you my heart
Feel dumb for being naive

Your eyes had me spellbound
How your kiss made me melt
Hands leading me through late-night talks
Always knowing words to match how I felt

Made you dinner though I couldn't cook
We would drink with our friends when we could
Every small insignificant moment
Burrowed deeper than I thought they would

I knew you had flaws, same as me
I noticed you'd down too many beers
Still stayed by your side til the night finished
Would not leave the guy I held so dear

This corsage reminds me of simpler times
Stumbled upon it today
Wondered what you were doing
If you remember that chilly spring day

I thought nothing would be as good as you
Watched hopelessly, you chose to depart
Step by step your silhouette shrunk
You walked away, but not with my heart
I dont know why im randomly writing about my first ex, i have no feelings for him whatsoever now, i guess i was just reminiscing
