Letters to Past Lovers
Out of every one of you
who broke my heart
there was one
where I broke yours
first.
There was a time,
when I would have spent
my last day,
leaving my mark on your
unkissed lips
and tracing every line on your hands
with my own.
There was a time
when every moment of every day,
you were on my mind.
I thought I loved you.
I was wrong.
And I know we're young
and prone to puppy love,
and yet it felt so real.
For a time,
you were my everything.
I thought you were the
spark in my eyes,
and the power behind my words.
I believed the very stars themselves
would seem dim
in comparison to our light,
and the world would bend
in our linked hands.
And then I changed.
I've never told you
what really happened,
And now I probably never will.
I felt,
like my entire purpose in life
was to make other people happy
and I wasn't doing a good job.
This isn't an apology,
I've offered enough of those
and honestly
I'm not sorry anymore.
It's more of a lamenting ballad
Recalling the time
I thought I loved you
The mystery boy in my poems strikes again!
This is one of the last that he's featured in.
Enjoy!
