Goodbye Sweetheart

22/8...

Once again I am left behind
Another Love not meant to be mine
The feeling of despair my heart it stays
Ever since you pushed me far away

This hurt is just too much to bear
You curse me even when I try to care
So I'm giving space to love again
Knowing that you and I will never be the same

My head hurts and my eyes weep
You said too many words you cannot keep
Without knowing, you string my heart along
This feeling I feel I know it's wrong

Why do you hurt me the way you do?
All I wanted was the best for you
I will be just a distant memory
Memories are nothing compared to reality

If only I didn't have to miss you so bad
I would be ready to wipe away all we had
Because boy, what you do tears me apart
I am nothing, if I'm not in your heart.

Two months later...23/10

We drift further apart each and every day
The person I thought I knew is far away
Words you speak cause me so much pain
It would be better if I never heard from you again

Do you really miss me like you say you do?
Do you really mean it when you say "I love you"?
Because from what you say and how you act
You leave me no choice, I don't want you back

We've lost every happiness we once shared
I miss the times where you showed you cared
Now you're the cause of all my misery
I can't believe I let you do this to me

The only way I can let go, is the way I know how
My heart can't beat slower than it does right now
So play your games but don't mess with my heart
This is the last poem I'll ever write to you, goodbye sweetheart.
