You dropped my favorite cup
You didn’t mean to, I know
It didn’t mean much to me at first
But then I knew it was a curse
First it was the cup, then it was my heart
Everything fell apart
The warmth of your arms vanished
Your heart no longer beat in sync with mine
Instead of thinking of me, you thought of her
The sarcasm we shared turned to annoyance
Our small disagreements became large arguments
Long meaningful conversations changed to messages about the weather
Our love can be fixed, can it?
The vanilla taste of your lips became foreign
The love in your hazel eyes when you looked at me drained
Your soft curly brown locks became brittle to touch
The shine in your perfect smiled faded
Your temper was more unhinged than usual
I miss the old you, my love
My weak heart yearns for your return
I should’ve known that the two of us were doomed
We were just too different
You lived a quarter mile at a time
I lived in fear, afraid to step out of my comfort zone
I was a fool to think otherwise
The love we shared consumed my every thought
All I had to do was look into your soulful eyes
The small crack at the rim of my cup
It could’ve been easily fixed
With just one small kiss
But the crack grew to the bottom
Shattering to pieces
Releasing the contents of my heart
Staining the blue sweatshirt we shared
Tainting it forever
Everyone knows a crack in the foundation
Brings down the entire building
You were just my fixation
I craved you, your words, your touch, your smile
Then you went away
I had to learn to love myself without you
You were just the crack in my cup
