I saw you today 

And my heart skipped a beat

But not in the way it used too

Not in the you make me kick my feet and giggle sort of way

In the way that i wanted to start throwing up and crying right there and then


I saw you today

You didnt make eye contact with me i just watched as you walked by

I wanted to tell you how you broke my heart

I wanted you to feel guilty 

But you couldnt even acknowledge my existence, that said enough


I saw you today 

And i thought of all the things i might say

I could text you later but it might just be a waste of time 

I dont know what i would want you to say anyway

I dont want an apology but i dont want no answer i just want you to make things okay


I saw you today 

And i know your not in my life for the better

But i cant help but want to know who you are now

But we’ve both changed and nothing would feel the same

So for now, till i see you again

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

You were born an origanal why die a copy?The secret to success is the consistency to pursue.To the world you may be one person,but to one person you may be the world.To receive the right answer,you must ask the right question.Don&#039;t worry be happy! :)
