I opened up to you more than anyone else before,
My trust in you so incredibly deep,
You told me that you would love me more than I would know,
More than I would ever love you back.
But now that it is inconvenient for you to see me,
And you have different people in your life,
It is like you donβt even remember the times we had,
And becoming close to you was a mistake.
I gave you everything I had,
More than I ever wanted to give,
But now it is like I was never part of you,
And now I am missing a part of me.
You asked for so much and I gave it to you regardless,
With no consent or thought of my own good,
I ****** my own soul for you,
I get no thanks in return.
I am a changed man for good,
The lessons I have learned immense,
But a rut is what I have stuck my head in,
My old self is never coming back.
No gratitude would be enough,
The scars will never be covered up,
What I gave will not be remembered,
What I gave will never return.
But I will remember you,
Through the scars in my tissue,
The hole within me,
The chain that will never set me free.
Let this be a warning for anyone who supposes,
That new doors will open when another closes,
And that their mistakes can be redeemed,
Happy endings only happen in dreams.
There is no turning back now,
I would change what I had done if I knew how,
But alas there is no return,
Forever, my soul shall burn.
