Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans.


Sorry doesn’t seem to cut it anymore.
This life we live is about keeping score;
I hurt you; you hurt me.
The cycle of love, I just let it be.

Because when I’m sorry just isn’t enough,
When walking away is just too tough.
The memories we had make it a little rough,
For me to just walk away.

You’ve always been a friend,
A Joy to have around
Someone to care for, someone to hold,
Because he wasn’t around
I loved you because you loved me,
You made me laugh, you made me sing.
You made life a little better.
At the time, you were my everything.

But I loved you because you loved me.
You made it all alright.
You sang me lullabies,
While I held my lion tight.

I’m sorry, I’m sorry I broke your heart.
But don’t you see, what’s meant to be just isn’t in plain sight?
They say, “Sometimes the one you care for;
You were meant to love,
But not meant to stay in your life.”

Sorry doesn’t seem to cut it anymore.
This life we live is about keeping score;
I hurt you; you hurt me.
The cycle of love, I just let it be.

This poem holds alot of meaning for me. It's about loving two people at once. letting go, and understanding love, and accepting it for what it is.
