To My (Ex) Husband

by a-love-for-hatred

I guess I'm ready for this Signed the papers with my tears Didn't think it would hurt After all these years Friends now, like we never were But erasing your name from mine Even though I'm with someone else I still think "what if we turned back time?" You tell me you miss me But you didn't want me when I was there The saying is true, "you don't know what you got till it's gone" Yet back then you couldn't bring yourself to care Our house just wasn't a home You were there but I was all alone You worked all day, then with her all night You never even answered your phone Now I'm loved and adored He holds me every night Kisses me on my forehead Tells me everything is all right As soon as the paperwork is through I'm marrying him after divorcing you Love was a game I never thought I'd win- But I did, and my prize is him.
