Time cut short



One day you were mine, the next you were gone.
You told me to F off.
Now I'm crying all alone.
I know I didn't deserve this,
And I know I'm not always right.
But where the F did you go? We didn't even have a fight?
my time with you was cut short,
And I don't even know why
When you told my mom you'd marry me one day.
Well I guess that was a lie.
You shouldn't have left me here, You promised me the moon.
But what I got was you walking out on me too soon.
Everything happened so fast,
I couldn't make you stay.
So you just forgot about me
And then you walked away
