Goodbye to you, hello lonely nights --iCyFiRe

The end of May brought cold nights,
where I was to lie alone in my bed,
sheets beside me indented where you had once slept.
Waking up on those early June mornings,
pillow drenched with my midnight tears.
The last time I saw you,
you were standing at the bottom of the stairs,
where we used to meet after school..
But this time, you were talking to HER......

What was so bad with us, me and you?
I can't see what went wrong,
your letter didn't explain enough.
"I love you, but can't be with you"
was the main thing you said in writing,
making no sense at all.

It's time to open my eyes,
and realize that we're over for good.
At first, I didn't want to believe it.
But seeing you all over HER was a true reality check.

I still miss you beside me,
whispering your corny jokes into my ear,
but I'd always laugh anyway.

Tonight, I'll pray that I won't dream of you,
I want to keep my pillow dry.
Tomorrow, I'll wake up alone,
from a sad night's sleep.
