"Live everyday like it's your last"


I didn't think it would be this easy 

To set our memories aside 

But I don't want you no more 

So many times I've cried

So many times you lied 

 

We destroyed each other 

It wasn't enough

For us to last forever 

But I thought this would be tough 

 

I feel free 

But oh-so-lonely as well

I thought I was safe in your arms

But you never caught me when I fell 

 

It wasn't expected 

But I knew it would happen eventually 

It came so fast 

And I wasn't exactly ready.

This poem is about my first love. We lasted 1 year and 4 months before our relationship came to its brutal end. I wrote this because I thought it would be so hard to get over him, but once I did it freed me.
