I thought I won
because in a way
he's still mine.

Though it was never a competition for you
because him and me
aren't a thing
and probably never will be.

You've seemed to move on
you have a boyfriend now
but I think he still wants you
I think he still loves you
and that rips my heart out

he hasn't seemed to have moved on
still has your pictures on his wall
next to mine

and it crushes me
to think your memories with him
still reside in his room
still reside in his mind
still reside in his heart

constant reminders of you
are everywhere
and he's not getting rid of you

but you wrecked him
you demolished him
and I was there to pick up the pieces
yet he still loves you

but I don't
because you hurt him so deeply
but he's gotten over that, it seems
and he's a broken person
has been since I've known him
and he gets better every day

but you unglued all of those pieces
that I helped mend back together
and you didn't care that you hurt him
but I did.

and I thought you were out of the picture for good
but that wasn't the truth
because you were still there
you are still here
and you will be until he finally says
goodbye
