There's an ache in my chest.
It floods my senses and swallows me whole.
I'm drowning in pain and sorrow.
My only lifeline has left me.
Was I not enough?
Was I too much?
Maybe I was too vulnerable.
I let you peek behind my wall and you used it against me.
I let myself become a weapon in your sugarcoated hands.
But the sugar became poison and my heart slipped between your fingers.
I felt it smash to the floor as I let out a single tear.
The pain was masked by a bright smile but tonight that smile falls.
I let myself believe you were perfection.
I was blinded by my own stupidity.
I blame myself for your mistakes.
All I can do now is pick up the pieces and move on.
Those three little words will never pass these lips again.
The only word I will utter to you after this will be the last of many.
Goodbye.
Goodbye to the butterflies and knots.
Goodbye to the kisses and tears.
Goodbye to the hugs and bruises.
Goodbye.
I won't miss you.
