Thoroughly Spent, Oh How Time Went

Thoroughly Spent, Oh How Time Went

A Poem by TaylorAnn

You were the first to reach the depths of my heart
But you left it hanging out on my sleeve
Those carefree nights where we forgot about the world when you held me
You were my one and only
Kept me warm when I was lonely
Felt like you were the only one to know me
As the seasons change
So did those days
From bright to dark
Then I was known as a narc
Made the whole thing seem like a farce

Accused of falsities when friends didn’t understand me
Couldn’t say much when no one was there to defend me
Virtual scrapbook with my horrible memory
I remember you so vividly, but do you regret me?
Labels weren’t your thing
And I knew nothing else
I always wondered if you could tell
I thought you would catch me when I fell
But I guess that assumption went straight to hell
In a handbasket
Closed case, better shut that casket

I should’ve forgotten this all, let it all roll along
I’m sick of feeling that burn when I hear your favorite songs
More effects than medication can fix
You kept me in a ditch till another came around
You left your mark on that hidden part of my heart
It ripped when you tore me apart
But I sewed it together, showcase protecting it from anymore harm
When I think of you my face still grows warm
Remembered fondly forever
First loves turn so bitter
Couldn’t escape that fate

Do you think that this could possibly be put into song format with some editing?
