Untitled
Allowing you to keep knocking me to the ground,
Trampling on me,
Torturing me into this pathetic being I have become.
I won’t allow it anymore,
I won’t allow you to brutalize me so.
You go on with your life,
You live every moment as though I was never part of it.
You find someone else while we were together,
You let your feelings for me fade,
Just like that, transferring them to another.
Your belated sorry doesn’t mean a thing,
Your indifference for my pain and suffering is what’s eating away at me.
And here I am,
Still stuck in the same place,
Where you left me and my love behind,
To find something else,
something better than us.
I guess I didn’t mean a thing,
When you have already forgotten me,
Pushed me into the background,
Your now ‘good friend’ again.
Like we never were together for two years,
Two years I’ve given you my all, and my trust.
