I was the funny girl.

You were the man

everyone wanted.

I was the girl

you chased.

And boy,

the victor may stake his claim

But it wasn’t that easy

to love a man like you.

But I was in love...

And it wasn’t for show.

Word on the street

that you had her

name on your lips,

But if I come to you,

would you kiss me

like you used to?

Would you love me

like you did before?

Darling,

when I said

my vows

I meant it

and I’ll keep it

till my dying day.

I was scared

for what lies ahead,

for the things

that escaped my lips.

But it didn’t stop me,

from being the woman

you needed.

Darling, I will come home

to you again.

I promise.

I promise, I will

even if it kills me.
