Brokenhearted Memory

You are a memory A reminder of a time that once meant something to me When it all ended, I thought I would be okay, but this time was different The pain creeped into my heart in an instant Wanted to rip the beating organ out of my body While crying to myself and whispering that I was sorry I was making amends with a ghost I think that's the part that hurt the most Thinking back to all the times before Where I acted less and thought more But that was then Now the only thing that remembers you is this pen It's funny how quickly good things end One moment you're the happiest person in the world, now you're writing leterrs that you'll never send But now I'm exhausted Do you know how much emotions it costed For me to fight the urge to pick up the phone and call? For me to tear down your pictures from the wall? You severed the ties But I was the one believing in those sweet little lies Thinking that there was still a chance That there was more to our dance Maybe this wasn't the finale Maybe this wasn't the final tally To mark the end of our chapter Maybe there's such a thing as a happily ever after But I was wrong You're no longer my favorite song Your name is no longer my favorite word All traces of your face has become blurred I guess this is it My hand feels empty as now there's a space where only your hand could fit Once a lover Now a stranger whose face belongs to another Nameless memory This is how it will be Because every reminder of you, is the death of me
