It’s selfish of me Hoping you’ll never get over us When I perjure myself daily Claiming I wish the best for you It’s wrong that We were never technically “us” But I’ve already Seen our life together Paradoxical that In this short time I became disinterested In the vast sea of options Wishing, hoping, waiting You’d come to your senses And see that your heart Beats to my same ache I’m sorry that I Assumed the worst in you But you assumed The worst in me Perhaps that’s why I’m drinking here alone While you determine Your next receptacle It would bother me but I know you Like you know me She doesn’t matter She matters to me Next in the long line Of unfulfillment I wouldn’t do the trick How unfamiliar will We become? How quickly have you Been able to move one While I sit here In anguish Longing for the touch And smell of you Laughing at my desperate words Unable to stop typing Or make sense Of the outcome
