There Was Only One

Hair like fire, a cascading wave of magic

Memories, wishes of love

A sweet beauty, a flowing dream

Memories, our connection

Makeup, desire, a rolling wave of wow

Memories of her eyes on me

Years, happy, looking up, smiling

She made me happy

We talked, she said, I said, together

Memories of her and I

Years, laughing, talking, stupid

She threw it all away

She confided, she decided, us

Memories of her and I

That safety, that feeling, happiness

When it was just me and I

Longing, only one sweetheart

Ending, only one heartbreak

Longing, only one desire

Ending, so many tears, 11 years

Her gliding beauty, her perfume like a tag from a graffiti artist

Her giggles, that sounds that sent my heart into spins.

Her pull on me like a rope round my neck, tight and suffocating

Her odd ways, uniquely sweet and yet so profound.

Jealousy, hurt, pain and despair

A knife stabbed into me tearing me to near death.

Jealousy, hurt, love and hate

A killer blow sending crashes that sent me to hell.

Losing, lost, tears as I let go

Always, forever and I know it will be so.

Retreat, bleak, sad, hurt Ending, only one heartbreak Dead end, gone, only one dream Ending, so many tears, 11 years There was only one.
