The Key To For(n)ever
It pains my heart
Watching you with another
Staring, looking, wondering
My heart still shudders
Still, we were but a key
That was stuck in a lock
Willed it to turn and click
But the door stayed blocked
The key looks like it fits
Yet the door will not move
No matter how hard
The key tries to woo
While I know for us
There is little chance
I wish for you the greatest romance
I sit in my room
Looking back for a while
When I think of us
My dear, I still smile
I remember watching you
Pottering round my room
When our new love
Was still in full bloom
Studying your body
Every kink
Willing myself to find more
Between the ink
Wondering how long
I would lay on your chest
Imagining that we were destined
To be the best
Easily believing
We would make this work
Wandering on cloud nine
My proud smirk
Stirring in your embrace
On sunday afternoons
We never made it past
The honeymoon
Not a cruise
Instead a road trip
Excitement, lust
Frequent belly flips
Until I saw my day dream drifting
See your attention shifting
Less on me
‘Can’t meet today’
I watched you flutter
Further
Then further away
Far away as you soon would be
My heart knew
This was not to be
Not my fairy tale fantasy ending
Then picture
Few days after our pretending
Another is loving you
You look happy
A smile thats subdued
Picture status never enjoyed
I guess
You are overjoyed
With old love
Had you ever moved on?
Were you thinking of her
Through our love song?
Did our time only mean
What the key means to the lock?
A short encounter
That happens a lot
Or if I am right
Thinking, what, I think
What we had was special
But never really could begin
Then the love that you have
With the one that is pictured
Must overshadow ours, granted
But I should not feel sad
Or angry, not hurt
Being jealous would mean to I do not deserve
Knowing yes I do, I deserve it to be true
But maybe I just do not deserve it with you
For a lock and key may look perfectly together
But not every key opens the lock to forever.
