I packed it in a box last night
Everything that reminded me of you
I was hurt, and I was angry
And you didn't even fight back
You didn't fight for me last night
So I figured I must not be that important
I packed it up and never wanted to see it again
Put it in a corner of my room
And cried myself to sleep
It was all packed up and ready to go
But when I saw you today--
I couldn't do it.
I trusted you, and if you told me you didn't do it,
I believe you.
Something in you told a different story.
It sat in my room as we talked downstairs
"So you're saying you think this could still
work?"
Yes.
"What if I said.. I didn't?"
My heart shattered, but I had to pull together.
You asked if I was okay
Called me a liar when I said I was
I said "big girls don't cry.."
"Big girls do cry. And so do big boys"
I shook my head no,
But as you hugged me, I broke down
"I packed your things in a box,
They're ready for you"
You came upstairs and began looking through it.
"This is all yours," you said.
You named each and told why it was mine.
I picked your heart- shaped silly band out of the box,
And you didn't notice.
I took your hand, and placed it in your palm,
Slowly closing your fingers around it.
You looked at it for a moment and said
"This is yours too"
And slipped it back upon my wrist.
I walked to your car,
You gave back my hat
I asked for my necklace back.
You handed it to me.
I stared at it for a moment.
Suddenly, I ripped a charm off and returned it to you.
"This is still yours"
I said, placing my small silver heart in your hand.
You smiled, and took it.
Good byes are the hardest for me.
They hurt the worst
"You act like its forever"
The words still ring in my ears
And I don't know what to make of it.
You drove away, and i stood there in the cold rain
Thinking, 'isn't life ironic?'
I packed it all in a box last night,
Everything that reminded me of you.
And there it sits
At the foot of my bed
Right where you left it
--Mine--
