Pride Over Love



Just because
I let my pride show,
doesn't mean
I don't love you anymore.
You were my everything,
and with everything,
much more than just that.
I still care about you,
even if I seem untouchable.
I would let you in so quickly,
even though,
I already found someone
and have moved on.
"Forever and ever,
until the end."
For some reason,
those words we said
won't leave me alone.
Maybe it's trying to say something...
point out something...
showing me a sign?
I will forever remember
the love you showed me.
