I’m a thought without a body
A body without a mind
I tried everything to keep you
But, you were never really mine.
I’ve stayed up countless nights thinking what I did wrong
But the truth is I did nothing wrong.
I thought my goal in life was to please you
Even if that meant I had to give up things I loved to do.
But after all of this, I finally realized.
I never needed you,  and frankly I never will
Like everyone saids
“It’s just another high school relationship you’ll move on”
But it’s not the fact that I can’t forget
It’s the fact that I don’t want too.
Even though I should I still crave you.
When I’m in the halls, I always look for you.
You’re like an addiction that I can’t follow through.
It’s also not the fact that I kissed you yesterday
It’s the fact that I need to sit down and learn how to behave.
And I know it’s going to be hard
But what can I say…
You’ve already forgot me anyway.
So when I sit at the table
Going through my phone
And I happen to scroll through some old photos of you
I won’t cry, no I won’t shed a tear
Instead I’ll smile
Saying goodbye.
