If it happens this way....

I sacrificed so much to be with you
It took all this time, almost two years before you got the clue
I crushed on you and tried many a time to spark the fire
I went to new heights, going higher and higher
I gave you the most and still give it, it's what you deserve
I love you with my mind, my mody, down to every nerve
I broke her heart to fix yours, to get what I always desired
All the promises I made saying I'd never just made me seem a liar
Her heart was pure and untarnished, and I put a chip in it
More so a crater, she's still my friend after all the shit
But the lost glow in her eyes, the dullness behind
I see it, and everytime it hurts me on the inside
I thought I could never be capable of what she did to me
To cause such pain, what an atrocity
Words can not describe the feeling heartbreak
I can't fix it now, it's too late
I sacrifice so much for you
Because thats what love makes you do
I want to make you happy and finally get it right
I've only gotten wrong with all the girls in my life
Karma has its way of waiting to get me back for what I do
I'm just hoping it leaves us out of the equation and doesn't use you
I put too much into this relationship so it could work
I don't need it getting trugged through the dirt
I'm counting on this lasting a long, long time
That it won't end in a sinful crime
I trust you and you trust me
That's how every relationship should be
I'm prepared for this to end bad but not on my part
Because I've always wanted you from the start
I still have my guard up protecting a wounded heart
It's a very hard job to do but considered a fine art
I know my guard is succumbing to your will though
This is going oh so good, trust me I know
But if it happens this way
A piece will be lost that day
The gentle soul will bear the pain once again
That will be it, no more heart to lend
A heartbroken heart breaker will be bred
Part of a race that can never be led
As I write this on this day
I hope it doesn't happen this way
