i still love h.e.r.

she was like a love lost
haunting my soul
i thought about her constantly
wishing for her to touch me
she reminded me of home
she captivated all of me
but i
like many times before
walked away with no reason
i
like many times before
gave her no excuse
i
like many times before
decided that she and i
couldnt be we
home wasnt good enough
so i
like many times before
i left
i walked away
i took my heart and went home
pretending not to be hurt
pretending she didnt
steal my soul
pretending that
i wasnt in love
yes i
like many times before
turned my back on what i love
turn my soul against my heart
forced my tears to flow like rain
and she never said a word
she just let me walk away
she said i needed space
she promised to hold my heart
and if i ever returned
she promised to love me still
she loved me
for being me
and thats why
i
still
love
h.e.r.
