THE ONE I COULD CALL MINE

We laughed, we cried,

We failed, we tried.

We fought, we hugged,

We battled, we loved.

You were there for me,

All the time,

But now I have lost,

The only one I could call mine.

A nightmare here,

A betrayal there,

Thread by thread,

I tore our bond to shreds.

You took my sorrow,

Made it your own,

But now I have lost,

The only one I could call my own.

You made me happy, you made me sad,

I treasured both, neither was bad,

I don’t know where our love has gone,

I can’t find it, I’ve searched up and down.

I pray to God,

I want things fine,

But now I have lost,

The only one I could call mine.

Call it fate, call it destiny,

Or call it my felony,

I did wrong, I know I did,

But never thought it’d end like this.

I pound my head,

On brick and stone,

But I can never bring back,

The only one I could call my own.
