The Skies Cried

And so, the skies cried, just like I did.

And I’m sorry to break your heart in two,
Because I couldn’t be the right person for you.

And so the skies cried, just like I did,
Not because of your love for me,
But because I couldn’t love you back.

And I hated how I became the girl who has wanted this for so long,
Who wants someone to treat her right,
To dance in the rain and sing sappy songs in the car,
To go hiking and search for secret places,
To eat in random restaurants as you hold my hand.
And not want you.

We could have that.
I know we can.
And my mind knows we can.
But my heart cannot.

And so the skies cried.
The heavens shed their tears.
Because even if the heavens have planned for us to meet,
Destiny was kind enough to you to make you fall for me,
But fate was cruel enough to me to never feel the same way.
