Knowing to not
And I'm still confused as to
How you got to either spot
You gave me no time to sort through my feelings
And decide what was fake
And what was meant for only you
What I could have tied with ribbons
And given to you
But I guess that's one less person
I have to waste wrapping paper on
This season
This season that is supposed to be a symbol of joy
Has been tarnished
The untouched snow
A constant reminder of what the world is hiding
And what you pretended to feel
Your wheels keep turning but I'm frozen still
In the snow storm that never came
And you seem to be forever stuck in the sophomore slump
And I wish I could say I won't help you out
But everyone knows that isn't true
Jump rope is not something you play with the heart
But I guess that's not something they taught
At private grade school
And I will walk with my head held high
Knowing that nothing I could have done
Would have saved you this time
But you couldn't even give me two days
To change my life
