For the years we were together,
my birthday wish was always the same.
I'd look into your eyes as you and my other loved ones sung me happy birthday,
and I'd wish for forever with you.
If i could ask for one thing to come true-
and stay true-
It was us.
All l ever wanted was to be loved by you.
Funny, now, how all those birthday wishes were in vain.
—Because we no longer talk.
In crowded rooms, the ghost of your absence lingers.
My passenger seat remains empty,
The songs we'd sing together are now sung by one instead of two.
At night, when I stretch out my right leg
and arm, theres no warm body to curl around.
You were my one wish.
The one thing I wanted from this life was you.
—Now we don't talk anymore
It's exhausting, mourning the love I had for you.
Learning how to accept the awful way you treated me towards the end.
Seeing the proof of what you did to me.
Learning to accept betrayal from the person I had learned to trust the most,
greater than even my own family.
You were my person.
—And now we don't talk anymore
I no longer know your schedule by memory,
I have no idea how you spend your days.
While your spot beside me remains empty,
has mine already been filled?
I wonder,
do you still think about me?
Probably not.
—Because we no longer talk anymore.
It leaves behind a bitter resentment I'm not used to carrying,
knowing I'm no longer part of your life.
That people who met you after me get the pleasure of being in your life
But I don't.
You cheated on me and still, I love you;
You left me in the worst way possible and you don't care.
It's an answer in itself,
because we no longer talk.
