Breaking up

Why is the pain
Not like I thought it would be

Maybe I now understand
That we weren't ever meant to be

I looked so hard
Hoping for a dream

That maybe I forced it to be
When it really wasn't as it seemed

So tell me what was the purpose
Of all this attraction

What was I supposed to learn
From this intense and passionate interaction

Did we both walk away
With hatred and pain

Or will we grow and mature
with so much to gain

Friends can we stay
Not sure what's in store

Will we leave it as it is
And never open that door

But wherever we go
I will always remember

Love on a staircase
Discovered in September
