my symphony played the song that broke my heart. the song haunts me in my sleep every night as I grip the blankets trying to tell myself to keep holding on. the song played louder and louder as I drove away from my broken heart. in my sleep she said come inside, fall asleep it'll be okay, but when I woke up I wouldn't be okay. when I woke up, their mouthes wouldn't tell me it was all just a sick joke. their mouths would scream that song. the song played louder and louder. it'll play on a warm day in August when I'm wishing for their arms around my shoulders. it'll play when I'm in a park kissing my husband, thinking to myself about the terrible lives I had because of their decision. it'll play at a wedding. it'll play at my brother's high school graduation. it'll play at a birthday party. it'll play and it won't stop.
