i tried to prove my worth to you, show you i was a good choice, a good mate i took care of you when you were sick, when you had a bad case of the flu i pulled my weight, cleaning the house, doing laundry, grocery shopping i provided, making sure you never wanted for essentials, little luxuries i protected, getting into a fight, when a guy harassed you i did all these things to show you i cared and loved you, but it wasn’t enough it’s been a year, i still find myself, missing, hating, loving you my heart was broken, it’s slowly mending, still painful to certain memories i am angry, you let me live in hope, in bliss, you knew you were leaving, that you were going to break my heart, destroy my world, my life, my soul of all the women that i have loved, met, you are the one i wish i hadn’t your actions shouted louder than words ever could, but i was deaf you made other plans, building a new life, in another land, rekindling an old flame like the phoenix, you destroyed everything in our lives, so you could rise, to love another i am still in shock, still grieving, slowly recovering you are no longer mine to nurture, love, take care of like a passing training, no longer visible, i can still hear it’s whistle my love has faded, but you left a mark, on my heart, that will never disappear
