What Happens Now

A couple of weeks ago, my fiance and I had a massive argument and almost broke up, like most couples do, but we worked through it like we always do and so I wrote a poem about it, like I always do

We met, we fell in love

I used to think that was enough

but I realised that I can’t live off just your kiss

I want more out of life than this

I forgave you countless times,

gave you time to change

now I’m starting to believe

that you think this is just a game

but you only get so many lives

before it’s game over

and now I know that our relationship

will not last forever

I talked, you didn’t listen

same as usual

when will you understand

that we can’t just carry on like normal?

I threw my ring across the room

and stormed out the door

and I didn’t come crawling back

like all those times before

you didn’t run after me

haven’t texted or called

and now I’m starting to wonder

if I mean anything to you at all

I laid my cards on the table

now the ball is in your court

show me the part of you

that I stayed so long for

this is serious stuff,

not some petty row

we both need to decide,

once and for all

what happens now.
