T2N-How True Love Ends

The tree still stands The bark has grown. The names, a hollow space Not gone. Just warped, unreadable now Like us. Knocked over by time and silence Pre-Chorus No one is to blame It just stopped breathing So quiet. No bang at all Like snow that melts Was it ever there? It was there Chorus This is how true love ends Not with a lie. But because it was real And all things real carry their death inside Like summer breaks for fall, like stars own the night We did not lose us. We used us up Till there was nothing left to give, just dust This is how true love ends Hurts the worst cause you thank it And walk away Verse 2 Your mug still sits here. I do not wash it Is that holding on? Or just a poem That I write myself, because empty has no shape I do not put you away. I let you gather dust, gone matte In photos we laugh. That was no fake That was us. For real. At our peak And that is why: There is no way back You do not restore what is already complete Pre-Chorus No one put up a fight Because there was nothing to save Only to end Honest. And alone Like dying after a long life It was there. It was there Chorus This is how true love ends Not with a lie. But because it was real And all things real carry their death inside Like summer breaks for fall, like stars own the night We did not lose us. We used us up Till there was nothing left to give, just dust This is how true love ends Hurts the worst cause you thank it And walk away Bridge I do not even wish you luck. You had that with me I wish you know: It was right here With me. By me. For the time that was ours Now we set it free. Without it destroying us Only changing us. Forever Outro If someone asks me, "Was she the one?" I say: Yes. That is why it is over True love does not stay. It comes Does its job. And leaves you new Whole. And empty. And full of scars that warm This is the end. And the start of the heart that could love you Lyrics by @MartyT2N
