Your Past Together

The long line of girls who are waiting for you
Will mean nothing to you anymore as you are
Thinking about that one girl who you blew

All your chances with. She was on your radar
And one of the rare few, but she departed
From sight again. She was your only star,

Leading and guiding you. She was bighearted
And kind, which is why she forgave too much.
However with you she was cautious and halfhearted.

You tried to sooth her with a soft touch,
But it only reminded her that you have a long
History of other girls before her. You want to clutch

Her tight so that you do not lose her within the throng
Of people trying to get right in the middle, but she
Is leaving again. She does not belong

To you and she only wants to be truly free.
She is tired of people judging, but she cannot ignore
What people already know about you. She wanted to be

Your future, but she knew that she could never be the cure
For your past ways just like she had to watch out for other
Girls trying to stab her in the back. Although you swore

To her that you were different, she would rather
Figure that out for herself. She does not want to be a part
Of what you have to offer. Do not smother

Her anymore than you have to. She wants to be smart
And think more logically with her head because that is
What she is so used to doing. She thinks less with her heart.
