Yesterday she genuinely smiled Something that lit the town bright The way her lips curved to the left Before the right reminded me Of the days she never knew you Tonight, believe it or not, but she laughed Her laugh could be heard from a mile It was so loud, Contagious, And it whispered the word "content" into the winds The kind you would hear after you kissed her lips Or at least when you used to press your lips upon hers And tomorrow you will see her glow with happiness The kind you see from a lonely child who finally felt love Beautiful, exquisite, pulchritudinous, just to name a few Those are the words that will come across your mind When you see her pass you by By then I will feel sorry for you Because she finally moved on She finally saw her true worth---her true beauty And I will look at you and feel sorry She overlooked your flaws, past, and mistakes. She forgave you for your stupidity countless times Accepted your selfishness and narrow mindedness She made sacrifices for you, MADE time for you when she had none, Adjusted her life to make things work for you To make things work with you All those things that you could not do for her. But now, you are nothing but a piece of her past, A memory that is constantly fading, An old flame that long disintegrated, A photograph that has fallen on the back of her desk, Or maybe you're all of that. No. You are all of that. And I feel sorry for you. So sorry that you lost an amazing person Someone who accepted every part of you, Was willing to put up with everything, Change her ways to make things work, Someone who didn't give up so easily, and Someone who would have never given up on you The way you did with her.
