TWAIN

(1 of 7)

she had the most beautiful name

or so it seemed

she was the girl of my dreams

that were nightmares

you know what that means 

it was whatever i felt 

that had me loving you 

until there was nothing left

you had all of me

since June of ‘13...

i was in love with you

or whatever that means

cause it was nothing to you

but to me

it was everything 

remember those rings?

maybe when you’re alone

they’ll start to ring bells 

time was never on our side

don’t throw your pennies in that wishing well 

your mama told me it was a fairytale. 

i stayed down for you

even when you brought me down

loving you so deeply with intention

i knew i was bound to drown

look at me now

after loving you for so many years

where are you now 

when i need you to dry my heart’s tears

after all

you’re really the one to blame

if you were unhappy

i ain’t know a thing

you did a great job 

putting on a show

but that audience you put on for

were the first ones out the door

when you decided to walk away from me

you really can’t convince me that there’s another woman that’ll love you better than me.  

don’t you see?

you thought that grass was greener on the other side

but it ain’t all that it’s cracked up to be... 

you made a fool out of me

you allowed me to love you

recklessly

you got the best of me

even when there was nothing 

left in me

and then you left me

while you were laying next to me

but now

you’re dead to me

or at least i wish you were

you got me in this corner thinking bout life and shit and 

how blessed it is to love

but that shit’s a curse

‘cause all you did was play with my love... 

my love...
