I used to have these big dreams and hopes in my eyes,
but after you left they all formed into questions and goodbyes,
And for future reference, ignore all these cheesy rhymes, but remember the message
Because they're all created with these flying times and my confused cries

and I know you didn't lie to me,
but while you stepped out that door,
you took more than a piece of me,
more like the rest of me,
the best of me,
whatever I had left.

My mom said I should write you letters.
She doesn't know I have boxes underneath the clothes in my closet.
All locked up with memories.
But I'm staring at them,
hoping they'd turn into day dreams.
But I could never send them.
I know I had my faults but,
I'm never that childish.

I know I said you deserve so much better.
But you know how my insecurities choke me like my grandmother's favorite sweater.

With the patterns of words I should've never said,
I would've taken it back without hesitation.
I recited this many times before, so listen, and don't fake it:

"You deserve so much more baby, I guess, maybe. But I want you to stick around and build up a wall between my demons and comfort because really I can't imagine my life without you. Everything would be the dullest gray."

Now that you're gone, and miles away, let me put it this way:
I'm seeing everything through a dog's point of view.
