Get the girl,
don't let her slip away.
Let her love you,
kiss you,
hug you,
just don't let her get away.
She is the world,
the stars and the sun,
everything in one,
the only one who can get you to crack a grin on that cemented face of yours.
The moon comes out at night,
and shines glowing beams of light,
and it reflects in her beautiful eyes.
She can make you,
and she can break you,
but most importantly,
she will take you,
far, far away.
To places you've never known,
never seen,
and all in between.
But in the end,
she will break you.
Take your heart and tear it apart.
She will bring you to your knees,
have you begging please,
and in the moonlit night,
under a starry sky,
she will walk away.
And in this moment,
your heart will harden,
lock up,
and become stone.
She will make you feel broken,
an empty shell of a man,
when in reality,
she is the creator,
of a brand new soul.
When you shrivel up inside,
and feel like you're not alive,
remember the good times.
Remember the love,
the laughs,
the life you shared.
There are no words to describe the pain of heartbreak,
but one thing can describe it,
you are no longer a child.
Before you can truly love,
you must lose.
So go get the girl.
Love her,
kiss her,
hug her,
and when the time comes,
let her go.
Like a butterfly,
let her roam,
and always know,
she is the one who opened the doors to your heart,
and open your eyes to a world of love before you.
