first year I met you, I was infatuated with your charm.
It kept me from performing self harm.
Second year that I knew you, we we're going through the honeymoon stage.
Everything was good, except for your rage.
Third year we we're going good together.
Thought our love would last forever.
Fourth year, you said you needed a break.
We weren't broken up, but my heart still ached.
Fifth year, you decided that you wanted my love back in your life.
You said someday you want me to be your wife.
sixth year, you buy me a promise ring.
I was so happy that I wanted to sing.
seventh year, we started to fight again.
You tell me that you don't love me anymore and that I should start seeing other men.
Those were the words I wanted to ignore.
Eighth year, I started to fall.
we broke up a year ago and I couldn't take life without hearing your voice at all.
You knew how much I loved you, yet you strung me along.
This was the year, I haven't been very strong.
Nineth year, it's been two years since you have been out of my life.
All I suffered was sorrow and strife.
I am trying so hard to move on.
I am still trying to figure out where I belong.
Tenth year, I finally smiled today.
heartbreak after heartbreak but I am okay.
Ten years is to long to waste on someone who probably never loved me.
Ten years and I am finally free.
