"Where there is love, there is life." -Mahatma Gandhi


It was a cold and dreary morning
with frustration and disgust.
I wasn’t given much of a warning,
so I guess I’ll have to adjust.

You gave me everything I wanted,
including a promise ring.
To this day, I’m haunted,
by the fact you were the real thing.

I never want to let myself believe
that true love really does exist,
because at that point, you’ll leave.
You were the last that I had kissed.

You gave me everything I wanted,
including a promise ring.
To this day, I’m haunted,
by the fact you were the real thing.

You thought I’d give up on you,
but you really didn’t know
that it’s you I’d grown on to.
You’re about as cold as the coming snow.

You gave me everything I wanted,
including a promise ring.
To this day, I’m haunted,
by the fact you were the real thing.

I wrote this after a fight with my boyfriend. I thought we were going to break up, but we didn't.
