Do you remember that night we spent together?
Laid there on the bed holding hands and cuddling so close together?
We were looking up at the fairy lights strung up above us, twinkling in the dark like a thousand stars shining down on us.
We looked at each other with adoring eyes, felt the taste of your lips full of lies on mine.
We held each other as if we could never let go. Felt your heart beating so fast along with mine.
But I wish I knew back then that the magic wouldn't last, I held on longer than I knew I should have.
I touched your face as I looked in your eyes and you whispered I love you and I believed your sweet lie, you then took my hand by surprise and slipped a ring on my finger.
A promise you said of our future together, a future we tried to build not once or twice but three times. I took your ring and believed every word you said, how was I to know back then that every word was never meant.
I tortured myself believing that this love was true, only to realise in the end that I lost myself giving all my love to you.
Now I look at that ring and wear it around my neck in a chain, not as a reminder of you but as a sign of hope that one day I'll finally be okay and that the love I gave you was never meant for you, it was meant for me all along that one person who mattered the most and became forgotten just to love you.
