Waste

You were a waste of my sight Every eyelid flutter would bring your image I mistakenly compared so closely to perfection You were a waste of my breath Every "I love you" spoken weighs on my tongue like a treacherous burden You were a waste of my heart Too many times you would make it wither and be less whole with each coming day You were a waste of my tears So many times I wept for you and how you treated me You were a waste of my honesty I always let you know my evil truths just to be maliciously deceived by your neverending lies You were a waste of my suffering You made me feel pain I never thought I could endure But through all the suffering I discovered Completely, undeniably, and irreversibly You were a waste of my time
