Don't look at me,
you can't see me,
I'm not here.
You never saw me.
YOu saw what you wanted me to be,
not what I am.
You said you loved me,
time without end,
and now you go,
seeking another special friend.
I don't know what drives you
to do the things you do.
I don't know what made you decide
to leave my heart back in my hand.
In pieces.
I handed you a heart easily broken
yet still whole,
you give it back shattered.
Now you seem to regret your choices,
you realize your mistakes.
but now it's too late,
to fix the damage done by hasty thinking.
You have always done this.
You leap before you look.
and now there is no one there to
catch you.
If you fall,
You fall alone.
I cannot save you,
I will not hold on to you.
You have broken everything.
Now you must pay that price.
For it is yours to pay,
and mine to mourn.
You were in love with your dream of me,
and not my actuality.
Yes you loved me,
but you never knew me.
You were clueless in your knowledge
and lacking in your desire.
I loved you,
I love you still.
My heart still beats
to the rythm of your name,
but now,
finally,
does my soul dare to breath.
You stifled me.
I could not breath.
My soul was lost,
my heart encased.
And now, it has come back to me.
Your idea of me was lost,
as I came back to myself,
you could not handle what I had become,
what I am becoming,
so you did what you do best.
You left.
And one day,
you will look back,
and you will see.
That you will never find another
like me.
You will never be loved
like you were by me.
May your life bring you happiness,
for the little you brought me.
Thank you for your time,
Thank you for the expirence,
now if you don't mind,
my life awaits me,
and there are things I have yet to find.
So I will travel this new path
and see what awaits me.
You held me in your hand long enough
now it's my turn.
Do not misunderstand,
for I bear you no ill will,
I wish only the best for you.
But I have no sympathy for you.
You have chosen your path,
now you must follow it.
I only hope that
it brings you to the happiness
I could not give you.
Do not worry,
I am not defeated.
I am renewed.
You have given me the greatest gift of all,
the gift of knowing how to love,
and to be loved.
For I know you loved me.
And I thank you for that.
