How was it that I let him break my heart?
How was it that he melted the steel?
I had no claim.
I had no right to jealousy.
Why did I let another guy get so close to my heart?
I didn’t fall in love.
I didn’t let him get to close.
Still I’ve fallen to pieces.
Still he broke my heart.
I was told he was a dog.
I was told he wasn’t worth my time.
I didn’t listen to the warnings.
I didn’t see the signs.
How could I be such a fool?
How could I let him get to me?
I had no chance.
I had no reason to fall.
Why did I get lost in his eyes?
Why did I melt at his smile?
Why did his words have to make me feel 10 again?
I stepped back and let it all roll by.
I closed my eyes and said it wasn’t real.
But when I opened them,
She was still here.
He was still holding her,
The way he held me,
A week before.
