You stopped calling months ago
We were still together, but you didn’t call
That hurt more with each passing day

It hurt to see you smile less with me
I tried grinning for the two of us,
But first I had to wade through my tears

It hurt to hear you lie to me
It was infuriating to listen to you,
Because you felt sorry for me

It hurt to wait for the end with you,
Like two people at a train station
Waiting for your next love to pick you up

It hurts that I’ll never hold you again,
And you’ll never call my name and smile
Not like you used to

You never even said good-bye
The last thing I saw were tears,
And you walking away
Some scars never heal, even if you give them love and attention. It' s hard to cope with all this silence around me.
