Losing you came slowly
But I saw it coming
It started with the distance
You slowly began to fade
Our days together were numbered
That much we knew
Losing you
In that sense
Of just waiting for you to be gone
Was equally beautiful
And terrifying
It had to happen
Everyone has to leave
But your exit was a bang
A finale that no one would ever forget

I can't differentiate
between
drumbeats
and beats of my heart

You left when I needed you most
And I can't blame you
I was turing into a mess
Too much to handle
I think it was better for us both
Ending up this way
Cause you deserve better
Than to sit here and stay
You deserved much more
Than trying to fix me
I could read it in your eyes
The frustration was easy to see
I still wish it went a different way
That you didn't have to leave
I wish I could make it better
But I still hope you'll come back to me

In the mirror, she blinks
And she thinks aloud 
"What a weak girl."

In class, she breaks down
Her classmates frown and say
"Such a weak girl."

She felt so abandoned
As she happened to be
"A very weak girl."

I knew that girl
And how at night she would curl up
"As a weak girl."

But she held on
And she grew strong
Until she became..

The strongest girl with no pain.

If we're always under construction
When is the detonation date?
Jo Dec 2012
I remember your promise
On your life you swore to keep
That you would love me forever
And by my side, you would sleep
We would have a few kids
And go out on dates
Love with all our heart
And stay out late
We were so perfect
Together so flawless
We were so in love
Until you broke your promise

I wish I could say
I knew you like before
It seems like yesterday
When you walked out the door
My heart was broken
But you didn't care
For you, I left my life open
Like Hawaiian air
You shattered my heart
And ran out of my future
As if we never had a start
As if we were never together

I started calling myself by a different name
And the people didn't want the new me
And I was okay with that
Jo Mar 2013
I heard you're doing fine
I wish I could say the same
But hey, it was a tough run
We were both in blame

I heard you started over
And you have someone new
I suppose that's great
Well, great for you

Shamefully, I'll admit
When I lay awake with thoughts of you
I only pray
You've heard and thought of me too

Grabbing attention
Requires work
I neither like work
Nor impressing
Jo Feb 2013
I'm not even shocked
I don't even care
I'm really not surprised to see you not here
I knew you would leave
Just like the rest
My life goes on without you
My heart still beats in my chest
All I can say
Is I hope someone leaves you too
Just like what you did to me
You, selfish you

— The End —
