Only One

He made her his everything,
and now she’s gone.
He feels empty inside,
with no motivation to go on.

He thought it was love,
but it wasn’t even close.
He didn’t read the signs.
He didn’t look both ways
before crossing that road.

He feels alone in this world,
like nobody has ever cared.
He should’ve known she’d be the same.
Existence is never fair.

He’s holding on to what he can’t have,
and eventually he’ll be forced to let her go.
The times with her were so special to him,
and she gave him a reason to hope.

He doesn’t know what to do.
He doesn’t know what to say.
He sees her walking by,
and his mind becomes blank.

She brought peace to his restless thoughts,
and faith to his dwindling soul.
She picked up the pieces of his
broken heart and made him whole.

He’s tired of dreaming about her.
He’s sick of seeing her face everywhere.
It’s as though she’s constantly following him,
and he’s beginning to get scared.

He should try to get over her,
but it’s easier said than done.
When she wandered into his life,
she became his only one.
