Not Knowing

Not knowing is scary,
	It’s unnerving.

I wonder everyday where you are
	And how you’re doing,
		And if there’s a new me in your life.

But you said there’s no one like me.
	Was that a lie?
		It wouldn’t be the first time you’ve lied.

The scars on my limbs are the only reminder of you.
	Such a sad thought.
		That only way I remember you, 
	is through my pain.

The echoes of your voice,
	the things you’ve said to me.
		They seem to ring through my head,
	like a bell rings in a church.

You never truly loved me,
	you loved the memories we had.
		The good times we had.

I hate myself for that.
	I let you take advantage of me like that.
		Something my mother would never accept.
	Something my father would warn me about.

I don’t know.

	Not knowing is scary.
		But I know I’m right.
	
Thats what scares me.
