Do All Good Things Come to an End?

Do all good things come to an end?
A late night filled with laughter and connecting,
All lead to what we weren’t expecting.
A true bond thought to be forever unbroken,
And that’s when I saw that your heart was the token:
The way all the butterflies never went away,
But I could still trust you with all I had to say.
The way you looked at me would always give me peace,
And that’s how I knew my feelings for you, would never decease.
As the time went on and the feelings grew,
I knew I had a place in my heart, just for you.
As I came to my conclusions about what I thought we could be,
You chose to leave for someone who's a bully.
Out of nowhere, my heart was ripped from my chest,
And the new emotions I felt could not be compressed.
It was a type of anger and frustration that severely hit,
Knowing your life could go on, without me in it.
Who I found so precious and would do anything to keep safe,
Chose to run back to the easiest, most imperfect place.
So from what you've taught me, I’m more than a good person,
I was your escape from hurting and pain; I was a diversion
But it was more than that, wasn’t it?
I was a good choice, but you chose not to commit.
Maybe it's time for me to do the same.
To turn off my feelings and stick with the easy game.
The very last thing I want to do is say goodbye.
Because it's good for you but something I could never satisfy.
I guess I'll have to live knowing we could have had it all,
Because my feelings for you will never crash or fall.
You were that special person I thought would be my best friend.
So I guess it's true, that all good things come to an end.
