What happened to forever?

Where did it all begin,
where did we go so wrong,
when did the end begin?

A whirlwind romance started it all,
a greater love,
I thought I could never find.

We had strength and passion,
I thought we would outlast time and
you told me we'd be together forever.

Now, you want to leave
you say we're over
but I still love you

What of that?
Can we throw it all away,
just like that?

Pretend it never happened,
pretend my heart's not breaking
pretend I never got left behind,

without a thought or second chance
caught up in a whirlwind
left to grieve, alone, in its aftermath.
