picking up the pieces

it hurt so much that day
to watch him walk away
never to come back to me
my own actions pushing him too far

falling apart once again
self-pity overpowering all there is
but there you were
just to smile and pick me up
picking up my pieces once again

little by little you brought me back
putting that forgotten smile upon my face
some say it was too soon to be smiling again
but the timing couldn't have been better for us

a small routine is what we've made
and it's oh so sweet to be with you
I'm always there to cut you short
you're always there to ace me 

we can talk about anything
as all my secrets are known to you
as you trust me with it all
words kept between our lips

you were there to pick me up
and here you are bringing me that daily smile
I'm not letting you drop me
me and you are meant for something more
