I Watched

I watched as time and space
Ripped holes in your heart
And withered your face
I watched as the rain dampened your hair
Running down your face in streams
And you cried without a care
I watched as you kissed your first love
Injecting his breath into your heart
Thinking he fell from the heavens above
I watched as you traced the skies
Fingers interlocked with each other
Lost in his eyes
I watched as you cried when he left
Holding onto pain and regret
His heart deeply wept
I watched as he offered himself back
And you just laughed
At the thought he would think that
I watched you make the same mistakes again
Choose the worst kinds of men
Wondering about that time when
I watched as the boy struggled with his feelings
Wishing he still had you in his grasp
Staring off through the ceiling
I watched as you became lost to make up and dates
Staying up late and coloring in the lost scenes
Hoping for fate
I watched as you didn't know what to do
and he didn't know where to turn
Still he would offer everything for you
I watched as you didn't think he was worth it still
More devoted than any man you ever met
He held you against his will
I watched as you never realized he was fate
I watched as he was gone for good finally
And you realized....too late
