Old poem

Loneliness lingers since I can't feel you on my finger tips.
Your smile used to brighten my days,
Now it's a reminder of what's no longer mine.
Please just let this die
Because you don't know how many tears I've cried
For you
And now I realize you weren't even worth it.
Save your pity.
I didn't need it then
And I don't need it now.
So kindly leave me alone and vow
To never mention my name again.
You don't get to talk about me
Like you know me
Because you don't.
I promise I'll do the same for you.

Do you know...

Do you know what it's like to feel that no matter what you do, the thing you want most is what always eludes you?

Consider This Goodbye

I can't say all the words that I'm thinking.
I can't express all the things that I'm feeling.
All I can say is that I want
Nothing
To do with you.
You are so selfish it makes me sick.
How can you expect me
To wait around for you
When you can't do the same for me?
It shouldn't come as a surprise to you,
Considering we've been drifting apart
For quite some time.
And please don't try to win me back.
It's not going to happen.
I've realized that even though
I don't think I'm worth much,
I know damn well I deserve better
Than you.
Everyone does.
I hope the people around you realize this
Before they're in too deep
Like I was.
Like I am.
The worst part of this is
I know this hurts me
So much more
Than you.
