The Used To Be

the USED to BE

ur used to be, that’s me,
I was urs, not anymore
It’s plain to see I’m not urs now
For I’ve become your used to be

Everytime you kiss me it tastes just like goodbye
And I cant tell that my best friends the reason why
When were out together you say there’s nothing wrong
But when we’re apart, everything just goes all wrong

you used to call me each night before bed

calling me when i go awol from the hp

u used to look for me when i dont reply

and ask if i’m ok and fine

you used to msg me sweet words of love

telling me that u miss me every now n then

but those were all the thing

that you used to do

ever since ur return, after completing college

you changed and turned colder

you dont call anymore

you dont msg me the same way anymore

everything i do and say seems all wrong to you

nothing seems right when we’re apart

but when we’re together hand in hand

the whole world seems so perfectly ours

everything seems fine

each kiss we had truly felt so painful

a mixture of love, pain and goodbyes

everytime we hug i feel like crying

coz i’ll never know if it’ll be the last

you try to pretend like everything is fine

but it never is, ever since that day

the day you buried my love six feet under

the day u pledge, no 2nd chances

i used to be your priority

i used to be then sunlight in your eyes

i used to be the one uttering u sweet goodnites

i used to be the one holding u tight

well i’m your used to be

u buried me, buried my love

with an oath never to resurrect me

yet i wait patiently for u

with hopes of a change of heart

a promise and oath i give to you

although it seems to be the end between us

as long as the RING is on my finger

shall i wait for ur return to dig me up

i know for sure the time is not now

for u have other things in mind

be assured ur in my prayers

everyday and everynight

it’s time for me to let go what i should have

instead of having high hopes n getting broken dreams

i’m moving one now, and so have you

perhaps a brighter future, only God knows how

i have loved you unconditionally

it’s not easy for me to let it go

but i have to, you didnt give me a choice

so now ur free to fly away into the sky

be happy for me, for someone has found me

waiting patiently for me to accept him into my life

all the while he stayed and comforted me

wiping my tears when u didnt

i hope u find what ur looking for

i hope you’ll finally find the closure that you’ve wanted

i’m sorry for all the pain i’ve put u through

no worries for there wont be anymore
