Cradled my heart from being torn,
still this concept on her did not dawn.
Smashed my to pieces and left me for another,
causing me to wonder why do I bother?

But the reason I bother is because I care,
a concept that she was never aware.
So I pride myself that I can feel that way,
yet she chose to keep her emotions at bay.

I am the bigger person for hurting the way I do,
as what's the point of loving if you cannot hurt too?
They go together like peaches and cream,
as when you're down they make a good team.

Merging as one to get you through the pain,
letting you know you've no need to fear the rain.
For when you've been hurt the same way as me,
you learn to weather any storm and ride any sea.

No current's too strong and nothing can win,
as in your pain is where your strength does begin.
Building you up that tiny bit more,
when you're so convinced you won't get up off the floor.

Still the strength to go on we manage to find,
as our willpower and love start to bind.
Seeing us through times of doubt and trouble,
for before the rain is when our POWER BECOMES DOUBLE!!!
