"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind."


How foolish was I

To believe that it was you

Who would be with me


To think that your hands

Would meet me at the aisle

Would slip on that ring


How I imagined

Your hand in mine, forever

Warmth on a cold day


You said you loved me

And now I can’t get that ring 

Off quickly enough


Fresh tears on my cheek 

We used to be forever

Now the world is gray


Now you have left me

Now I’m sobbing on the floor

And you never cried


Your hands’ in hers, now

And still I’ve yet to move on

I can’t forget you
