How did we get here?
You used to come and find me just to talk
Now I’m thanking lucky stars for a day without your glare
I’ll never understand how it all broke down
But you know what? Maybe I’m just not meant to know
Maybe we’re just too broken in our own ways
For us to have ever had anything meaningful
Too similar, yet too different, in ways I can’t explain
All I know is I’ve spent far too much mental capacity
Running all that happened around my head
It’s time I let it go much like I’m sure you’ve line since done
It just feels like such a waste of something with potential
But then again it’s not the first time something beautiful
Has been left to die through missteps and misunderstandings
So chalk it up to another failed experiment
An attempt to feel something that wasn’t meant to be
Never has it been in my abilities
To know and understand every event
All I can do is live and learn the lessons
And hope if there’s a next time
That I might find a way
In all that came before that moment
To avoid the trap we fell into
