Hands are clasped
His taste still resting on her lips
A smile in her eyes
Thankful for that stolen kiss
Leaning up against his chest
Stroking fingers through her hair
Closes her eyes in disbelief
That they are really there
He holds her softly
Warmth bonding them together
He tenses slightly
When she whispers, “forever”
Noticing his change of heart
She starts to pull away
“I love you, dear. I’m sorry.”
That is all that he can say
He left her sitting there
Broken and in tears
Wondering how she could have let him
Fulfill all her worst fears
And as he leaves her side
She cries out his name
He cannot turn around
It would cause him too much pain
Why does it hurt him?
Because he really loves her.
But he has to leave her
Cause a commitment to another
He will not forget her
She keeps him up at night
And she still has the dreams
Of when things just felt so right
And so they lie in bed
With someone else beside them
But in their dreams they are together
A firm hand to rely on
Its killing him
How could he leave her?
She hates herself
For being the believer
Maybe one day
The truth will be spoken
Maybe one day
She won’t feel so broken
Or maybe it will never end
And they will live forever
Wishing they could have each other
Wishing they’re together
