A Little Too Sweet

Candies and chocolate tarts Satisfy your stomach But only the grin of a certain girl Can satisfy your heart

Sickly sweet, she led you on (There were no bad intentions) Honey layered to the sky Then one day you were gone

Inside jokes and friendly calls Were all that you could share She said you were like a brother And that was the first of the walls

Was she a little too sweet? Did you grasp at false hope? Sugar piled miles high It was really quite a feat

You wilted in the oven's heat You never could tell apart Flirting and friendliness Was I a little too sweet?

I'm sorry I broke your heart
