You called me amazing.
You said you liked me
and that you didn't
like many people.
You couldn't watch me go
so you drew me back in.
And so began a romance
I wasn't expecting.
All your sweet sentiments
softened my heart.
I was so embittered
after all these failures.
And in the end,
it didn't work out.
But I don't regret
giving you a chance.
You taught me that love
could happen for me.
Maybe not with you,
but I'm closer than
I've ever been.
Someday I will be loved
and all the heartbreak
will have not been in vain.
