Things came crashing down
You weren't there
No, instead you turned around
Avoiding the whole mess
Things came crashing down
And you couldn't have cared less
Jo Jun 2013
Well, it's been a year
But you look the same
Same laugh lines
On your same young face 
Then all these 
Memories come rushing back
It's all so sudden 
Like a heart attack 
I'm thinking 
"I should go"
But you see me here
And you're looking so
Happy that I was there
But I don't smile back
No, I just stare

Cause the past is the past, dear
It won't change
We can't keep playing
These old games
Though I'd love to walk down
Memory lane
It hurts too much so
I can't stay

I
Didn't want to
I didn't want to
Have to
But
In a way
I think you
Made me
Jo Jun 2013
You left when I needed you most
And I can't blame you
I was turing into a mess
Too much to handle
I think it was better for us both
Ending up this way
Cause you deserve better
Than to sit here and stay
You deserved much more
Than trying to fix me
I could read it in your eyes
The frustration was easy to see
I still wish it went a different way
That you didn't have to leave
I wish I could make it better
But I still hope you'll come back to me

You were different
We were different
Back when
Those promises were made
We were so young
It's hard
Remembering what we said
Now you're done
Now we're done
And I can't
Bring you back

How easily she spoke
Of a healthy life
Of love
Of happiness
How often she spoke
Of hope
And courage
Little do you know
She cuts
She cries
Little do you know
She's broken
And wants to die
Jo Jun 2013
In the fall, I loved your beanie
The way you kicked around leaves
Your love for dying nature

In the winter, I loved your hugs
How you got me hot tea for the weather
When you held my frozen hand

In the spring, I loved your color
Your need for bright happiness
The way you dragged me to the pool

In the summer, I loved your voice
Our late night conversations
Sneaking out and romancing

I loved you for all seasons
I'll love you for the next rounds
Even if you aren't here to share them with me
