Literature Text

I thought you would stop me when I reached my doorstep
I thought you would throw open the car door and shout "Wait!"
I thought you would wrap me in your arms and kiss my eyelids and tell me it'll all be okay
I thought you would

But you didn't.

I thought you might text me after, while I laid in my bed fully clothed
I thought you might say you're outside my door, waiting
I thought you might change your mind after all and you would let me love you
I thought you might

But you didn't.  

I thought I'd be angry; I'm not
I thought it'd hurt less; well, it doesn't.

I thought my heart was prepared for this mess and I'd handle it and I'd be able to look you in the eye and smile when the end came but it wasn't supposed to be so soon.
I thought I would get the chance to tell you eloquently how I felt and I could say good bye to you in the sweet sheets of early morning.
I thought I could hold you close one more time and have a goodbye that I could hold onto when you were no longer in my arms
I thought I could kiss you one more time

I thought I could

I thought I could

I thought I could

I thought I could keep you forever

But you knew far before I...

I couldn't.
