Isn’t it funny how
Nothing goes as planned?
I thought things were going great
But then you dropped my hand.

I see the truth
But only through your lies
You say “you’re moving”
That’s not the reason why

“Can we still be friends?”
Sets my heart aflame
Why should I still be your friend?
Please let’s not play this game

Realization is the key
To progression, right?
Crying over you is a
Pointless, sleepless night.

Isn’t it funny how
Nothing goes as planned?
But for me,
It worked out in the end.

This is actually pretty good my very very very favorite part was

"Realization is the key
To progression, right?
Crying over you is a
Pointless, sleepless night."

This is sooooo true! Great job :D
