T-R-A-P-P-E-D

T for the time I've spent thinking about you.

R for the recent memories pooling into my mind reminding me how there was nothing I could do.

A for the amount of moments we had that held us together like sticky glue.

P for the promise you made to me crystal clear all shiny brand new.

Another P for that same promise which you broke, shattered into shards, fell to the floor, when you said we were through.

E for the bittersweet end of you moving on and me crying to my mom under a heavy sky fading blue.

D for the destruction you caused me, trying to forget you but you're just like a faded tattoo.

T-R-A-P-P-E-D

I'm trapped in the memory of you,
But I've started to think a little less about you,
The moments we shared were great but none of it was ever true,
Because that promise you broke showed the real you,
So I've covered up your tattoo with something brand new-
I pray one day you take the time for some introspection,
Realise all your misplaced affection do some self reflection:
And maybe you'll see that all I had was time for you,
All I wanted was to cherish our memories and bask in our moments
Keep my promise to you
And if that ever happens,
Don't ever try to call me, cause you'll know what it feels like to be

T-R-A-P-P-E-D

Trapped in the memory of me
Wondering what should've been and what could've been
While I will be soaring free
Focuing on that degree and
Chasing silver linings exploring all there is to see

Because you're

T-R-A-P-P-E-D

In the one that got away
And you're gonna regret till you're old and grey.
My ex inspired this lol
