A poem of a love turned sour.
When it started six years ago, I never thought it would end like this
Feelings of anger, emptiness, and hate
When we walked the path of our future, we took a wrong turn
A fucked up twist of fate

I knew from the beginning it was wrong to fall for my friends ex
That should’ve been a sign from the start
That what goes around comes around...
And I’m left with a broken heart

When you left the first time I was naïve and didn’t think
But the impact you made was already so deep
We were pulled apart 2500 miles from each other
I knew you would be mine one day, mine to keep

Unfortunately the end of our tale doesn’t end like that
You got scared when you finally had me, and you didn’t know what to do
We broke up and I found someone new to replace you with
I didn’t think it would happen, but you replaced me too

I tried to forget you and move on with my life, it’s hard to let you go
We said we would stay friends, and for awhile we did
Not even a year after we broke up you called with some news
You and your new girlfriend were going to have a kid

I knew we weren’t together (at the time) but it still felt like you cheated
I didn’t want to believe it, but I pretended for you that I was glad
But I couldn’t help remember that something we wished for years ago
Was something you let another girl have

How could you do that? Compared to me she’s a stranger
A girl I don’t even know, I feel bad because I hate
A family was something we were supposed to have
But you slept with her... and took a fucked up twist of fate
