*although the pain feels like stabs in the back and blades slicing through my heart, i know you were never mine to keep from the very first day i laid my eyes on you* still i created a world of fantasies and imagined us hand in hand just like in the movies *only to see her arms wrapped around your waist and your lips kissing her fragile head instead of mine* still i tried to make you love an idea of me while i hid the person i knew you'd hate deep in the darkest corners of my body *only to realise what a fool i'd been for you still chose her and left me trying to prove myself worthy of love (or what i thought it was)* still i told myself it was only a matter of time until you caved and realised i was right here, waiting with tears for lifetimes *only to learn that time was not the issue (i was) for you had indeed seen all the signs before* because in reality i was never good enough so you ignored them all and said it was time to blame when all this time you knew you loved her (timelessly)

(( i'd like to say that you destroyed me but i know very well that i was the maker of my own destruction ))
