I stood there
And swallowed my pride like a pill
Which was more like a heavy lump
Slowly sliding down my throat
With a fake smile plastered on my face to hide my discomfort
I stared at you as you uttered the words I never wanted to hear
“I think we’re better off as friends”
I wanted to laugh in disbelief
But I was frozen with shock
As I realized
My day dreams of you are now pointless
And the hope for something more I once had
Has no basis because you took the possibility away
I refused to let you know that I was hurt
Because I didn’t want to be vulnerable in front of you
Anymore
You don’t deserve that from me, I thought
I can’t keep baring myself to you
It isn’t fair to me
Because you run away every time I try to open you up
Even though you should know by now
That I wouldn’t hurt you
But I can’t force you to try or to trust me
So I’ll just take a breath for now and let it be
