I thought about you last night,

Your touch, your tyranny,

You weren’t supposed to be the one,

Everything about it was wrong,

But I chose you in that moment

Because I had never been loved

The way you loved me.

I thought about you last night

The darkness of your eyes,

The mischief in your smile

I chose you then because I had never loved,

The way I loved you.

I thought about you last night

How you threw your head back

When you laughed

But I walked away when

I knew about the choice

The choice to love me as much or even more than I loved you.
