Coping with a lost summer love.

Why do I still write to you why do I still call
Why do I still believe there’s hope for us at all
These are the things I think and that’s what I’ll continue to do
Trying to get over you

Sunsets make me smile old pictures make me grin
But I’ll trade all these things to see your beautiful face again
These are the things I think and I pray that it comes true 
Trying to get over you

You got to believe that there’s a reason and I gave you all of my heart
But there’s a vantage point and it takes some time to find
Where you can see how all the pieces fit as you watch them fall apart

Now I don’t think it’s right and I’ve done nothing wrong
My soul keeps asking me just where do I belong
It’s not as though my life ain’t hard enough to do
Trying to  get over you 

I keep asking myself to stop living in the past
But when there’s nothing left I only have sweet memories of us that will last
I want more than all of this and still this isn’t through
I know I wont get over you

    Nicely written. Been there, done that. In my case it’s been three years and for some reason, he’s as much on my mind today as he was when we first met. A broken heart along with broken dreams and promises is difficult to over come. But if women can survive child birth, I suppose we can handle the flaky male who turns our worlds upside down then leave us hanging while they chase someone who is younger.
