We haven't talked in a while,
I lost count after a year.
Long gone are the days
When your load I had to bear
You might think of me
Sometimes, I wonder if you care
You have secrets and I know
That you don't want to share.
For years I used to sit and cry...
Until my eyes could cry no more,
I tried and tried to shut you out,
Ignore the knocking on my door.
Even as I write these words
The memories start to scream,
You're far away, yet some nights
You take form of a dream.
Two long years, it's almost been,
Clearly - I recall
Last time we spoke, your last mistake-
That terrible phone call
Your words flowed, you took no breaths,
Did you even know-
That actions can't be reversed ,
No second chances to borrow.
Oh, how funny- second chance:
To right the wrong of any deed
No, - 200th or 2000th
Is the number that you need.
I'm not writing this to say
I forgive for what you've done,
I just want to let you know-
I'm happier since you're gone.
