you took advantage of my open heart, and made yourself a home quite nicely in it.

(i used to boast that my heart is unlocked and i welcome strangers in, but i think next time, i shall keep it a little more guarded.)

i knew you weren't going to stay for long;
you are someone who moves around quite a bit,
but i grew attached to you anyway,
and i'm still not sure if i regret it.

you moved away at the end of the summer last year.
you were one of the only people still staying in there,
and when you left,
everything was quite vacant.

it's been a while, but you're happier with them,
and i'm learning to accept that.
but my heart is still open for you,
if you want to wander back in.
