I can still hear you laughing in my passenger seat
like you did all last summer in the blazing heat

now my car is but a  frowzy mess
no one I ride here I need to impress

everyone used to tell me to just let you go
now they say nothing, its like they all know

its like a song that's stuck on repeat
I know every line and I  know every beat

they think its done because your name no longer troubles my writing
the battle of letting go is one i'm still fighting

truth is I disguise your eyes with metaphors of emeralds and diamonds
or the way you breathe with pacifying silence

lemonade cake mix and cream cheese frosting
all these good memories are now just exhausting

trying to move on but i'm stuck in the past
like the ending summer, we weren't meant to last

so i'll end this reign of poems about you
and maybe i'll finally write something new

this ending is dumb, bittersweet and tough
but i think its time, I've put you through enough

i'll end this poem with a goodbye and an apology
if it hurts it still matters its basic psychology

i'm sorry for all the hurtful words and all the fights
for all the lost time and sleepless nights

you didn't deserve it
so its time i quit

you were one in a million and for a second you were mine
i'd be lying if i said it was okay, or I'm fine

its time i let you be happy and new
you don't need to take all our memories, just keep a few

go forward in life with your head high and a smile
i know we cant be friends now but maybe in a while
