I see you fall
Every now and then
Breaking hearts
Without a care. 

You move on fast
This we know
A magic ride
That ebbs and flows. 

Can’t you make up 
Your fickle mind
Just trend back up
And stay on high. 

Second chances
Will not come into play
Between us this time.
We’ve crossed a line
That will never let us
Cross back.

Faith and respect
Can never be restored
The way they were last.
The betrayal was reeling –
Even time will not dare
Heal it. 

The bond we built
Has become a waste –
It shattered into pieces.
Our ties are cut completely
We might as well
Be strangers. 

The letdowns come one after another
And at times together
As if one will not hurt enough.

And the tears
The tears keep falling
Like they are your silent screams.
 
The one who set this in motion
You trusted him
You know you’ll never forgive. 

It was a promise
You pinned your hopes on
It was a future
You knew you owned.

But it doesn’t happen
Like it’s supposed to
It came crashing down
Like a brick on you.

So for self-respect
You refuse to just take it
And for self-preservation
You choose to quit.

The surge of feelings
At the sight of you
Swirled around me
Like a personal tornado.

We are long over
Our past buried deep
But when our eyes meet
They remember to weep.
