My heartbeat goes at a thousand per second
As I watch her stunning face redden
And just like that, in a moment, my breathing stops
From light speed, to nothing my heartbeat drops
She looks sad and confused as she says it, 'No'
She continued, but everything got too slow
I gave her a small smile and told her it's alright
My heart shattered and I prepared to take flight
"Just give me a minute, I need to take a break"
I speed walk to the car I can't bear the ache
I turn on the engine and prepare to leave
As the tears start flowing I wipe them on my sleeve
I should've known, I was blinded by optimism
Shouldn't have ignored my mind's criticism
I don't think I can ever face her again
No, happiness I can not feign
I got home and locked myself up in my room
Tears continue to flow as I die and fume
Regret, hurt, anger all mixed in with despair
Oh dear god, tell me how this is fair?
---The End---
