vesper

 

My man’s an OG gambler,
Takes risks like there’s no tomorrow.
Gin with a twist of zester,
Chasing the taste of bitter sorrow.

When we met, I had my walls high,
And you wore your armor, sharp and checked.
You needed someone to break it down,
To make you feel alive again, unchecked.
So I became the fire you desired,
Pouring my heart out, all night inspired.

Every time you drink a Vesper,
Remember me as I truly was—
For a thousand centuries,
Not to forgive,
But to remember,
How deep my love still was.

The day you said you loved me,
Was the day I betrayed your heart.
My cards changed with every move,
Chasing where my heart would fall apart.

I pulled the strings so you could take the keys,
Had nothing left, no more to please.
Now all I have is this regret—
“Sorry” is all I can say,
‘Cause betrayal hurts when love was real,
When it was sweet, when it was deep.

Every time you drink a Vesper,
Remember me as I truly was—
For a thousand centuries,
Not to forgive,
But to remember,
How deep my love still was.
