So Much For That

I might as well have lost everything the moment I lost you. The conviction and will to wake to the morning sun died with those three words... "It's over, sorry" The casual tone and washed over look of sheer apathy stung worse than those three words repeated over and over as if I hadn't heard it the first time thank you very much. I wondered what happened to Always and Forever and what happened to all the promises you seemingly effortlessly whispered in my ear, ever so lovingly... in the heat of the moment, I assume. I refused to believe you, my love, my life, my heart and soul... that YOU were capable of lying to me. But you abused my trust, Tore my life in two, Broke my heart And killed my soul. I see it all now, as clear and sure as I am sitting here writing this. You can break me, abuse me, but you will never completely destroy me. Your lies are meaningless against the truth I hold, the knowledge that I can do, so much better than you.
