I don't need these stupid thoughts you've left littered in my head
I don't need the reminders that you're no longer in my bed
I don't need your love, things will never be the same,
I don't need you any more, so take it all right to the flame

I never should have let you go,
I realize that now, just so you know,
You make me smile, more than I'll admit,
I'd stop this now, but I just can't quit.

I poison my heart with the lies on my tongue,
I can't let you know I still think you're the one,
It's a special day, that my lies are askew in
Oh what a big deal, a huge moment to ruin,
But I can't have you think and can't have you know,
That it's you my dear who I still love so.

You were hardly even worth the time,
Such wasted days when you mine,
You said I wasn't enough,
I didn't care to call your bluff,
You said he was your happy ending,
So sad to hear that that's all ending,
If into my arms, you expect to come running,
Well then my dear, you've another thing coming.

She belongs in the poetry of someone else now,
I loved her so much, and yet lost her somehow.
So perhaps this could be it, an end to my verse,
for I've no longer muse, but hey, could be worse.

I lived to write, so here's my last,
I'm haunted by the days gone past,
your image never left my head,
but perhaps it will when I am dead,
probably won't, but it's worth a shot,
you're the one, but we know I'm not.

Goodbyes typed, with shaking hands
the pain in the chest, that slowly expands,
till it consumes, every last thought,
all the hope, has lead to naught.

Maybe one day, this feeling will die,
but then on that day, so might I.
