The Ride

So much love
we use to hold
but he put out the fire
and left me cold.
He took his love
gave it away
when all I wanted
was for him to stay.
I tried to move on
with someone new
what else was I
supposed to do?
He came back
and didn't know
I saw his face
and wished he’d go.
Now my love
is kept a hush
trying to believe
it was just a crush.
And when we meet again
which I’m sure we will
all that was
will be there still.
I’ll let him pass
hold my breath
so he will think
there’s no love left.
But he will know
this is a lie
my feelings for him
will never subside.
I miss him most
when I go to bed
and memories of his love
dance through my head.
