Life Happened

for a while they were my exception
and when i had mountains to climb
they would never be far behind
pushing me on whenever i decided to fall
they were supposed to be there through it all
but when life happened
and things began to change
he left he let me down
broke it off easy with no explination
and there you were
you were still there you told me it would be alright
and when we were on the phone and i would just cry
you made sure you promised me that i would forget
you told me it would take time but that this was life
people come and go
she would know
i would never leave her alone
but things happened life changed
and soon we walked around
perfect strangers
I would wave she would wave back
She would smile and i would smile back
but where was i when at night she began to cry
bruises covered every inch of her body
when the things i expected her to say
werent sed
it was over i was walking alone
