I thought I was incapable of romantic love
I thought I was good at controlling my emotions
But I realized I was wrong when I met you

You were very wrong for me
Our beliefs clashed
Our families would object

But that sparkle in your eyes
That passion and excitement in your words
I've never met someone so alive

The sad, empty me of that time
Craved for you, hated you
Because with you, I could feel

A series of unexpected coincidences ensued
We got together
Almost made me believe in destiny

It was so good for a short while
I never knew how comforting touch can be
For once, I don't feel alone

But we were in a bad place
I hated myself
You hated yourself

I tried to make you love yourself
You tried to make me love myself
We both failed

It's been a year since we parted
I swear I'm over you
but please tell me why

Every new person I was slightly interested in
I wished they were brighter, cheekier, more honest
More like you

I thought I would find another if I look
I thought things would fall into place as easily as it was with you
But now I fear you'll be the only one

Still, I am changing for the better
There is no going back to you
I won't let you be the only one
