Coffee and chocolate
Muffins and heartache
Crumpets and tea
Biscuits and memories.
I sit here in the table
In the corner of the quaint
Coffee shop on the last street
Of our hometown.
The window is covered in snowflakes
The path outside is filled with snow.
It is a lovely day
But it's not lovely for me.
I sit here in the corner
Lost in memories of us
We were beautiful,
Weren't we?
The sparks, the energy
The love, the warmth
The intimacy
But it wasn't enough, was it?
I did everything
I could to stop you
But you were gone
Before I could
Tell you the truth.
You are on the other side of earth now.
How can I tell you that what you saw wasn't the truth.
You saw me sitting in this
Quaint coffee shop
Waiting for you.
You saw me get up
And leave the table.
You saw me leave the shop.
You could have come over
And asked me
Where I was going.
It would have saved us
The tears
The heartache
The heartbreak.
But no,
You made assumptions and left
And took a part of me with you.
I wasn't betraying you.
I wasn't lying to you.
I wasn't the traitor or
The liar in our relationship.
No, that was you.
Once you left, I saw all the signs
Of another girl in our apartment.
I was blinded by the so called
Love you showered on me
That I ignored all
The warning bells
And the red flags
Going off in my brain.
As I sit here
In this quaint coffee shop
I realize that you and I were
Never meant to be.
You go your way
And I'll go mine
You find your love
And I'll find mine.
