I’m not angry anymore

You had your reasons for leaving

As I have my reasons to leave you

Where you belong

In the past

I no longer search for you

In crowded places

Why should I?

You left with jagged cuts

Across my skin

I’ll heal overtime

I always do.

You’ll be just another scab

Over a wound

that I will eventually

disregard as another trial and error.

As I heal

Reality kisses my eyes

Internally breaking my chains

Over you is where I long to be

Replenishing the parts of me I had

Given to you

Allowing the sands of time

Breathe new life into this heart of mine

Earning a second chance with someone else

Who will love me and in all my imperfections

Without hesitation

Without false promises

Without a mask.

One text to end it all.

A wish that no unhappiness will ever come to me, yet causing the greatest I will ever know.

The belief that remaining in contact will only hurt us.

It pains you to write this, but it hurts me more to read it.

If I meant so much to you, you would try to keep me in your life.

Maybe you’re right, and nothing will fix what we’ve become.

But I will never forget you, even if I should, and I will always miss you, even if I shouldn’t.

Now the only thought left repeating in my mind is a desperate, Please don’t leave me.

But you’re already gone.

Against time’s test you said you’d stay

To my end, it’ll be a fruitful lie

I’ll always here, waiting, for the day

For fool’s gold to turn on me, awry

You’ve turned to a snake minus the tail

A coward without a spine to guide thee

Fractured alone, twisted by simple gale

Needing me, before me, bended with a plea

Our ties are cut, our pasts now burned with torches

You dose me with doubt like water, false hope

Sing me a lullaby, love a chorus

But this is the end, I’ve snipped that rope

You claim of wealth, clutch me even tighter

Useless money always burns brighter
