Letting Go

I don't want to hear your name.
In my heart you'll always remain but will never be the same.
You've done came and gone from where you belong.
Forever seems so long.
Distance is so wrong.
You left a wound that was so real to feel yet hard to heal.
To open your heart I ask of you what was the big deal.
I'll never forget all those nights how I almost ran out of breath from crying.
To keep from dying I was trying.
Your untruthful words that gave me hope l'm no longer buying and will begin living in hiding behind walls that are widening.
So please, if you ever see me, if we ever end up in the same place again, don't speak don't seek.
Just know my feelings still run deep in my heart i will keep and weep.
Forget that we ever knew each other.
You're just another that left me alone with wonder.
I'm just someone you used to know left sitting alone in the park in the dark and never wanted to show.
