I felt broken even when you mended my heart
I felt unconnected even when you held me together
I never moved on and neither did you
I had soliloquies when I was right next to you
We both had holes in our hearts to fill
We both had vivid memories to ****
So we used each other
Without telling the other
I told you I loved you
And there was hesitance
In your text and mine
I said it cause I wanted to believe it
You eventually responded cause you didn't want to hurt my feelings
And we kept fooling ourselves until we couldn't anymore
I released all the rage I kept locked up
From the times when you'd ignore me for hours
From the times when you'd never answer my calls
From the times when you never said 'I love you' first
I gathered the courage to end it
Our little spoof
But you ended it before I could
And that was even more proof
That we'd been living a lie
For five godforsaken months
After that everything was the same
The only thing that changed was the name that came with the game
The title I used to ward off unwanted attention
And that was all you were useful for
You were a better man to me after we broke up than you were to me before
You went back to her but my heart was still broken
Atleast you got yours fixed
Atleast one of us was finally happy
I just wish I was happy too.
I realized that even though it's been a year, I still felt bitter about this particular relationship and how it ended. I hope this poem helps me to let go of all that resentment because besides that, I am truly happy that he went back to the one he loved and the one that truly loved him
