Forever For You
I would wait forever for you
Even if every second hurts;
But then he’s something else,
Beautiful and brand new
With his eyes bright blue
And his heart dark maroon.
I’m glad he loves you
He’s better fit and smooth,
His arms are built for you
And won’t fall through
At the weight of amazing you,
I’m so happy for you, honey, its true.
Maybe if we were older
You’d see I loved you.
Or if you could stay sober
Just for long enough to,
You’d see the bones I broke
To fix myself for you.
I lived beneath the ocean
And the only light was you
You brought me to the surface
And with my head out of the blue
I was fixed thanks to you!
Because of you I am here
But he’s here too
So although we are through
I am so happy for you.
You deserve the boy
Who is not broken
And the one who would not
Leave these words unspoken.
I often fantasised about saying this to you,
I can’t believe I didn’t tell you
I loved you.
