Soulmates never last.

[cora13]

Soulmates..
Is what I always thought of
whenever I thought of you.
Together forever?
I knew it was too good to be true.

But an ending like this,
I never wished for.
Broken once again,
I'm sweeping my heart up off the floor.

You thought it was so easy
for me to walk away.
I didn't think it'd be so easy
for you not to stay.

Hanging up on you
was the hardest thing I've ever had to do.
Leaving you behind like that,
and being cold was all so fucking new.

Soulmates..
Is what I always thought of
whenever I thought of you.

Now we've moved along
in our own little lives.
It was tough at first,
but look at all of our strides.

Life handed us a curveball,
that's for damn sure.
I forgot my mit to catch it with,
building a wall seemed the only cure.

I think of you often.
I always have.
I miss you more than you know.
But I can't partake in your life any longer.
Not with him around.

Soulmates..
Is what I always thought of
whenever I thought of you.

Happiness comes in different packages.
My life seemed so fucking clear...
But when you chose that other door,
I had to let you go, for fear of my own drear.

I know that you didn't understand.
I know that it's been tough.
But now I hope you know
that I did this for the both of us.

Maybe someday is what I try to think.
Maybe we'll be close again.
But after all of this, it's hard to believe
that soulmates is what I always thought...
whenever I thought of you.
