I'm still shocked that we aren't together 
I thought that you'll hold onto my heart forever
I don't want anyone toxic like your CO2 dear
But you're the person in my mind as my lover
I fell for the way you bought me that flower
Then, I didn't realise your smile was cunning and not clever
I thought you'd reciprocate but you made my life a terror
I ain't glad that we broke up on Valentines day; it made my romantic movie of life a horror 

After that day, when I approached you, you kept avoiding me
Can't we be friends like how other ex-couples be?
Why can't you change? Why can't you see?
That when I'm glum, the sight of you makes me glee
And still, I want a kind guy, to invite me for tea 
If you be that guy, who understands me from a to z
There shall be no one happier than moi, baby
I still ain't glad that we broke up on valentines day 
but you treated me like hell, and I still love you
Will you please come to my arms, apologise and be that guy with the heart of gold, showing me that my love for you was true?

Because I never was glad that we broke up on valentines day,
but you're the person who made me dismay
and even then, I still love you in the same old way

The author's comments:

This poem is inspired by a fellow teen ink user, @aalaazah through her wonderful piece, 'Broke up on a Christmas dinner'. (Believe me. She writes awesome pieces. Check her out.)

I hope she and everyone else likes it.

(Izzy loves feedback. So comment on this.)

Favorite Quote:
“The apple doesn't fall far from the tree." I guess that means we're just products of whoever made us and we don't have much control. The thing is, when people use that phrase, they ignore the most critical part: the falling. Within the logic of that saying, the apple falls every single time. Not falling isn't an option. So, if the apple has to fall, the most important question in my mind is what happens to it upon hitting the ground? Does it touch down with barely a scratch? Or does it smash on impact? Two vastly different fates. When you think about it, who cares about its proximity to the tree or what type of tree spawned it? What really makes all the difference, then, is how we land.”<br /> ― Val Emmich, Dear Evan Hansen
