it's been a while.

It was out of my hands,
Something I planned against
And yet couldn't plan for.
I knew from the first encounter that I had you-
What I hadn't realized was that you had me.
The feelings were real
Yet so completely surreal,
As if they weren't mine.
The most reckless situation I've allowed myself to be in
And yet, the one I could not bring myself to get out of.
A prisoner to the imprisonment you found yourself in.
A situation neither of us would ever win.
So I lost.
So you lost.
And life went on.
