Lose To Win

Lose To Win

In your arms I once felt just so safe, so warm, and just so happy that I truly had believed that I had finally found my one and only superhero but just as I opened my eyes somehow the arms that once had made me feel just so secure are now slowly pushing me away, the eyes that showed so much promise are now full of nothing but sorrow and pain, and the once beautiful glowing warmth that surrounded my heart is now an bitter icy cold snowy reminder of what used to be.

Where did the time go, When did the season's start changing, and when did you stop loving me? I've tried holding onto what little of your heart I had left but what use is it holding onto one half if the other person already dropped and left your half? You'll never understand how deeply my love was for you, you'll never understand how many times, hours, minutes, or second I had spent thinking bout you, you'll never understand how many tears I've had spent on you.My heart is tired of waiting for you to accept me and stop playing me like as though I'm a doll. My ma taught me to never ever hold onto a love that was never even there from the very beginning and she raised an strong girl, stubborn and foolish but still strong.

The question that I'm asking is "What am I going to do now?" Well I'm going to let go of your half of the heart, pick mines back up, and continue traveling in my dark and snowy paradise where I'm all alone and my heart can heal slowly with time. Sometime you have to lose in order to win an even sweeter prize in the future.
