Astrology

I read the Stars and I waited for them to align 

Star crossed lovers, but someone was lying

I tried to send a message by carrier pigeon

It came back unread after scoring each region

No response, it was never delivered

You sent every letter back and our ties were severed

I couldn't fathom this would be our end

Now I struggle to process every turn and bend

Was this really the way things were meant to go?

Was the universe playing for the umpteenth time in a row?

I laid there bruised, battered, and shaken

Left to heal alone without ever looking like I've been breaking

Breaking, broken, all I wanted was time

Time to be heard and loved, to be tapped on my spine

You wore the crown and we shared the power

Until that night at that ungodly, fateful hour

Who am I to you now when you speak my name?

Will I ever get the pedestal, can we ever regain?

 Regain what we had when we first shared our kiss?

Or a piece of my heart always am I destined to miss?

The Stars won't align

My heart won't waiver

Two star crossed lovers

But one...he now hates her
