Hoping forever 
that I was closer 
while each and every day 
she was moving away. 
She was always cutting 
every single string 
I tried to attach 
and I'm no match 
for the pain of 
scorned love. 
I guess I've finally decided, 
though I'm still a little divided, 
to wait for her 
forever, 
for now a friend 
until the end 
or if she 
should wish for me.
