In One Day
In one day
It was all tossed away
And
I was left with no words to say
I saw you coming down the hall and my heart shouted
We touched we laughed and my heart was bout it bout it
I liked you a lot and my friends and I were happy
It took lots of thinking but eventually I decided to give you my virginity
Didn’t have many but in one day you became my very best friend
I had two people I could lean on, Edward aka Mooky and Fran
I was glad that you two hit it off because I didn’t want one without the other
I finally realized it was official when you introduced me to your mother
One hurdle down but still so many to get over
Was happy to call you my friend, my homie and my lover
Some people saw the bad which made me see even more good
Why do good girls like bad boys? Because they rescue us from the hood
I remember you told me you were going to make me fall in love with you
Despite my denial and me trying to avoid it in one day, what do I do?
I fell in love and from then I knew there was no turning back
Couldn’t believe I fell in love with my best friend just like that
And
Then
In one day
It was all tossed away
And
I was left with no words to say
The first big test had to be when I left for school
I just knew you were going to do me wrong and have me looking like your fool
It was so hard but we both hung in there tightly
After we got off the phone I would hold the teddy bear you got me, nightly
To take my mind off of you I started partying hard
You didn’t like it, but I was like ‘what is he going to do? nothing he’s too far’
I remember the ultimatum, you had me chose between the alcohol and you
I tried but I didn’t last because when there was no class there was nothing else to do
It hurt my heart coming forward telling you I couldn’t quit drinking
I really didn’t think that you would do it but you broke up with me
I cried so hard that night made me stop thinking, went and took a walk alone
The bad thing was it was night, on a campus, and when I stopped crying I realized how far I was from home
That was real stupid but eventually we got back together
I promised to stop again until I got the news about my grandmother
In that day a part of my life was discontinued and dismissed
It was so hard to let go almost like a first kiss
And
Then
In one day
It was all tossed away
And
I was left with no words to say
And
In one day I decided to come home and stay home
I just knew I wouldn’t be able to make it another year feeling alone
I had a plan I just didn’t know it was going to be so hard matching the puzzle pieces
I was supposed to be happy but then I started feeling how they felt towards me was not in what they teach us
I was so stressed my body was leaning along with my mind
My confidence trust and self esteem following immediately behind
In one day I was forced to face a reality I was not ready for
