The night was cool
When he walked home
He went in beside her
He left alone
Of all the things he'd saved her from
He couldn't save her from herself
They couldn't go on together
Because there was somebody else
How can our hearts be so fickle?
They take away more than they give
Ironic that we need our hearts
In order to live
Sometimes we want to tear it out
Sometimes we're glad it's there
So light we can't even feel it
So heavy it's hard to bear
She watches him go,
He doesn't look back
His kind, gentle heart
Had something she lacked
They weren't compatible
She wasn't good enough
So she stood there empty
With no one to love
They see each other
Now and then
They don't say a word
They're not even friends
He can't understand why she let him go
She can't understand why he left
The times they shared together
Were ones they'd never forget
One night she needs a friend to talk to
Tries to call him up and say hello
He see the number on his caller I.D.
And doesn't pick up the phone
She hangs up and thinks "Was I that disposable?
Is he better off alone?"
She lies down on her bed and thinks
How much her emptiness has grown
She bumps into him
Again at school
She tries to explain
That she was a fool
He wouldn't listen
The damage was done
He stood and delivered
Now it was time to run
She sits in the hallway
Alone and cries
Then someone walks up
And wipes the tears from her eyes
She looks up
And sees an angels face
He says "Come on it's time
For you to leave this place"
He walks up
All dressed in black
Sees her tombstone
With a golden plaque
It says "Died of a broken heart
In two thousand nine."
For the first time in his life
He sits and cries
He knows he misses her
But he has to move on
He goes to her locker
Everything is gone
He bows his head
To say his last goodbyes
When a spot of white
Catches his eye
It's a note written with her name at the bottom
And a teardrop at the top
It reads "I wish I could take back what I said
And eveytime I try, I stop
I know now that nothing that I said
Is gonna make things right
So the only thing that I have left to say
Is my goodbye."

- Description: A poem I wrote one day when I got home from school. Winter just always makes me think sad thoughts. Words started flying through my head during school and I wrote them down. It's a pretty sad story.
