I remember when I met you you were different to all of her other many boyfriends we could talk about the things I liked you liked them too. Months after you and her had finished your chapter in life you stepped into mine you dazzled dizzied bewildered me showed me that it was alright to like the things I did You wrote poems you made me feel special I thought that you liked me the way I liked you Then you left for what seemed a thousand years the night I found out about your new girl I didn't cry I remained content until an excessive amount of alcohol brought out all the feelings the words spewed out of me the same way the varied assortments of drink would do later that night We still spoke on occasion we shared an embrace or two when we accidentally met in the street I was still crazy about you even though I was aware that you were crazy about her You ignore me now we don't talk you cast me aside like everybody else did I think of you a lot lately but not in the way I used to If I ever had the pleasure of speaking with you again I would remain silent I have nothing to say to you The only things I have are the memories of you the arguments the embraces the exams It's all over now. I understand that everything I thought we had was all in my imagination when you said you loved me you didn't mean it in the way I did but I can't be with anybody else because I feel as if it should be you I'd like to say you ruined me but you didn't I've ruined myself I'm so used to being in a state of heart break that I will put myself back there in order to feel comfortable I want to forget you in the same way that you've forgotten me thrown me away left me I hope you never find out how much I cared for you because it's embarrassing for me I can't believe I ever felt that way about anybody I let somebody through the hard exterior that I have I pretend I have no emotion but you made me vulnerable I let you in.
