Déjà Vu

He stood before me; hands in his hair
Nervous shuffle, restless stare

An awkward exchange of name for name.
Small talk, laughter, a bashful game

Flash to I love you's, and long late calls
Stupid little arguments that drive me up the walls.

Then there's promises of forever and always
Thoughts of the future in every day.

Sometime later something goes wrong
An unseeable force breaks what I thought was so strong.

Phone calls come less and less
Despair and denial eat at my chest

Then the day comes when he no longer loves me
The day he promised I'd never see

I fall apart, shattered again
A brand new scar forms on my skin.

I rebuild the walls; shut out the world
Stupid, stupid, stupid girl.

I tell myself never again,
I'm done with love I won't let it in

But then I find myself in a familiar scene
A little closed off 'cause I know what it means

A slightly shy boy not quite sure what to do
Caught in this loop of infinite déjà vu.

to lose someone who grants you these euphoric feelings is dreadful. I loved the last lines. getting into a situation that appears to be all too familiar. good job dude.
