You think you left me so I could have a better man,
This whole time, was that your plan?

To break my heart,
Just rip it apart

With your bare hands
To see just where the pieces land?

I want no one else; I need you
But you won’t stay around to see this through.

This isn’t for the best,
But you already know the rest

Of this story
About a jerk and all his glory.

Ride off into the sunset, go ahead.
I’ll just sit here crying on my bed.

&quot;I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift, who will use it up and wring it out and drag it around like a favorite sweater.&quot; -SN
