I broke his heart on Father’s Day
It wasn’t in my intentions
It had to be done
Then I knew what my heart lacked
Lately I see myself a coward
How could I leave?
Being around you I felt safe
I felt like I was home
I always found treasure in your smile
Comfort in your laugh
Strength from your hands
...now I see why...
I wanted your attention
I wanted your full attention
I couldn’t get that
I asked, but it still wasn’t there
I questioned my presence;
What was I doing there
You thought it was meant to be
I thought it was a movie
I didn’t understand you…
The navy won your heart
And you wanted me to stay home
I couldn’t do it
There’s a beckoning in my life
I can’t resist it
I didn’t know what to do with myself
I am lost
You found love for America
And I was searching for it from you
Yet I didn’t protect some for me
I lost it
America completely won you over
I want to know
How did she win?
...the past
....is the past...
