The Conclusion

No rose will grow without rain,
Just as my heart won’t love without pain.

Love unreturned is like a question lacking an answer,
Like a smile without laughter.

Why is it you can break my heart, but every broken piece still wants you,
Why is it I know that you can put it back together too?

It hurts to know I would have given you the world if you had given me the chance,
My heart does no longer at the sound of your name dance.

I still miss you a little I guess, a little too much, a little too often, but a little less each day,
You have comforted me before saying ‘time is a healer’, I’ll think of that someday.

But as that someday is never going to come I know,
It’s time for departure even though I’m not sure where to go.

I wish you would make up your mind and stop leaving mine in a mess,
For as you surely know it has caused me much distress.

Even though I know I can’t go back, I’m planning on a brand new end,
I’m even beginning to look forward to the weekend.

I’m wondering if you even knew me at all,
But maybe that was my fault, my downfall.
