A Letter To My Ex

You had me at hello but then Something happened in which you let go. We use to love talking to each other day and night Because there were never any fights. But now I see that all the things You once told me aren’t true. About how much you love me and The things you will never do. When we talked there was constant laughter But now it’s like we no longer have anything To say to each other. I thought you were what I wanted in a man But I believe I was wrong. You send them random messages where You play with my mind and tell me all the things I want to hear but now, they place fear. Fear in my heart and mind as if you are doing you And is no longer mine. As I think about the things we could’ve Had I’m kinda glad. You use to run through my mind 24/7 But that’s no more. I feel that you never really cared about me And now I see. I know you have school and football to deal with But that was never a problem before. Now, that you no longer make time for me, I constantly talk to someone that actually listens To me and enjoys hearing my voice And the things I say. I know you say that your feelings for me are real But it’s not what I feel. You constantly call me your “babymama” but never your “girl” or “lady”. But hey you don’t need to because The things you’re not doing that you promised Someone else is.
