Once I have loved a person
Who loved me back as well.
I felt it would last a lifetime,
But then I couldn't really tell.
Distance broke it all…
His promise wavered;
It broke my heart.
Nothing ever mattered.
Took me a lot of time
To get over the incident.
And yes, it took me years,
My life had never felt so bent.
But I was able to live my life.
It gradually came to pass
When I met someone else.
Someone better than the man he was.
But what if distance
Come again to intrude?
Would he stay the same
Or forget me for good?
Such is the pain
I never want to feel.
It roots its way deep inside
And take a lot of time to heal.
If distance should break me
And cause me pain again,
I don't I'll be able to love,
I don't know if I can.
