i still lay awake at night
thinking about how you left
you treated me as if i wasn’t alive
like you never loved me to begin with
did you?

i know you did, at one point in time
but its hard.
remember, darling
it’s not that you left
it’s how.

you ignored me
you betrayed me
and then you walked away.
you apologized for leaving
but you never apologized for how you left.

and that’s what hurts the most.
