one day you're 16
and broken
and you swore to the universe
you'd never let anyone
hold your happiness for you ever again

then you're 21
and still breathing
and you continue to love yourself
'cause if you won't,
no one else will
and I have to wonder
If you meant
What you said
Or if they were just
hickeys
Sweet at first
But made to leave bruises
....ugh

I disobeyed my parents
And married her when I was younger

She seemed so shy and caring
but then she felt colder

She used to respect my space
but then she sat on my shoulder

She used to not criticize me
but  she eventually became bolder

I want to turn back time
And find someone else before I grow older.
------------------------
She put her dreams aside
And married me when I was younger

And when times were tough
I understood why she had to be colder

When I needed her
She was always on my shoulder

I was never that daring
So she turned bolder

I learned to love her
And appreciate her as I grew older.
Two sided views of one marriage and how one person interprets it. I wanted to give them a happy ending for once.

I bet you on that day in the rain,

That day in the rain where you thought;

I was "okay".

NO!

I was crying my eyes out;

But.. You couldn't tell..

Of course you couldn’t tell.

I hid away my face and hugged you;

I told you I loved you.

I told you I would be "okay";

And you believed me...

I’m not gonna be okay anymore.

I stuck around for you;

through heartache and hurt.

But;

When you left me standing there;

on the next rainy day;

complaining and telling me;

and that I needed to grow up.

I couldn’t believe...

I couldn't actually believe;

the boy I loved for a year;

was leaving me.
