You studied biology in college,
I guess I was just a test,
To see how good you could dissect,
And discard me like the rest,

You fell in love in college,
Forgot all about me back at home,
You spend all your time together,
The times I spend alone,

You told me that you loved me,
That you wanted me so bad,
But you couldn't take me back,
Please don't be mad,

You told me you wanted me. But you let all of that go. How do you just let that go? How do you want someone but the next day you don't even think about them? They don't even cross your mind anymore. It's been weeks now months and you haven't thought about me since. I'm nothing to you anymore. When before I was, in your own words, your everything. I don't get it. How don't you text me anymore? I can't even look at the same kind of car you had without getting sick to my stomach. The sad thing to know is I will never get another chance for the rest of my life to get you back. The only one each of us have and we never gave it our all. You gave up and just let it wash away. I'm so sorry for everything I did to get you to that point. I just was so scared that you didn't want me anymore. I know you will never read this, and even if you did it probably wouldn't matter. But I've been trying to find the words to say for these past few months. And this is as close as I'm getting. I always thought that pain brought out the best writing in me. But I guess when it's too much there are no words to describe how you feel. You have done this to me. I am broken beyond repair.
I haven't written in a couple months, and I keep coming back here trying to find the words to say to bring closure to myself. I can't do it. I just decided to rant about how I feel. I can't really put this kind of pain into words. Thanks all.
