They End for A Reason

I'm happier than I could ever be
all my problems have dissolved away
but as long as your here hurt will be near.

You were my first love
as I was yours.

I'll never forget that or you
but I will only allow so much hurt.

I have finally moved on
but it seems your still hanging by a ledge
to afraid to hold the hand thats trying to help you up.

The more you try to pull me down with you
the stronger I become
I'm learning to resist you, not give in so easily.

I've fallen for someone else
someone who treats me so much better
he never lets me down.

I never thought I could love again
but I'm loving him with my whole heart
at first I scared to love him.

But the more I've been around him the more I fall for him
I thought I would be terrified when he told me he loved me
I normally am.

Except this time,
I didn't even have to think
I just hugged him tighter and repeated the words I had heard.

Then that night you told me you still loved me
but I couldn't say it back
because I knew that my heart actually belonged to someone else now.

There will always be a place for you
a place no one will ever be able to touch
but so does he, and right now that place is holding so much more love.

Never forget first loves,
but always remember
they ended for a reason
