Boomerang

As I lay shattered I've fallen from your grace
and all that remains is the scars that lay in waste
just broken, I've never made it clear
these were the years that I never lied in fear
and baby you were there you lit up my life
You held me up and made everything right
tough battles did ensue but all in all I knew we'd make it thru
guess the strong ones fall too 'cuz id never thought id say
I hope she says the things that I meant to everyday
I love you for your smile that leads up to your eyes
if I could see them twinkle I'd probly collapse and cry
because I'd know its the end of our show
shes caught in your moment because you let ours go
so here’s to us the good times and the bad
that maybe you might boomerang and land back in my hand
just glue me back together then you’ll be mine forever

so true im happy to say that at the time i was still a teenager when i wrote this and sometimes small things like losing a relationship can feel like the end of the world as a young adult i recognize that its not ive always been an optimistic person and i admit i have a big fairytale complex lol

A very sad write with a glint of hope at the end. Amanda, I wish to share a quote wth you: "If you love something set it free. If it comes back to you, it's yours. If it doesn't, it never was." Sometimes in our lives, things happen for the best but sadly we accept this only later on in life.
