New York, street lights so bright, all the crowds,
That’s where I met you, that’s where the sparks flew,
I could hear a voice inside screaming so loud,
“Why would he want you?”
I ignored it.
We went to parks, museums, everywhere together,
The whole time hand in hand,
Once again I heard the voice, “this trip won’t last forever,”
But I was having so much fun and,
I ignored it.
The trip ended like I knew it would,
We went back to our old lives, and suddenly things felt different,
To keep you in my life I gave you everything I could,
It just wasn’t enough, and with each day we grew more distant,
You weren’t who I thought you were, and that hurt most of all.
I was blinded by sheer hope that you could be the one,
You texted me the other day and I couldn’t believe my eyes,
I responded because I was tired of feeling alone,
I’ve never really been good with goodbyes,
This is a fresh start, a second chance, the little voice whispers “People rarely change,” but I’ll just ignore it
