I thought I knew you, but I now know I don't. You are just a name. Just a face. Just tarnished memories.
You made me so happy, but that wasn't really you was it?
Your soul engulfed mine everyday for a long time. The warmth of you lips is what kept me warm through these long winter nights.
The thought of your voice was powerful enough to fight gravity and lift the corners of my mouth. You made me smile.
Now I know the truth, you lied to me.
I don't think you're a bad person, but you did a bad thing.
You hurt me.
I thought I knew you, but I now know I don't. You are just a name. Just a face. Just a voice.
I see your face everyday and wonder what you're really thinking.
What did I mean to you?
Questions I wouldn't let slip past my lips until I have tight grip on my heart, I wouldn't want you dropping it. You've already broken it enough.
I have questions I won't ask.
I am afraid the answers will cause an earthquake throughout my body and a tsunami in my eyes, and I don't know if I can survive anymore natural disasters.
When I heard you were still with her it was like a switch in my heart was turned off, it was like my emotions were all snapped in half.
I felt nothing and everything at the same time.
I wanted to f*cking punch you in the face.
You are not who I thought you were.
You were different.
I didn't know you, I do now.
