Do you remember the day we met? 

The day that was filled with laughter, but now I’m spent. 

I’ve cried, begged, and pleaded. 

But all you’ve done for me in return, is left me needed. 

I’ve yearned for love, and once for you, 

But seeing you now is like a whole new. 

I’ve gone through hatred and dread upon seeing your face, 

Now you’ve made me feel out of place. 

Like I’m no longer allowed to love or feel safe, 

Like I’m forever stuck in an endless cave. 

Every time I try to escape, 

I end up falling down harder, like a piece of broken tape. 

I never manage to get back up, because you’re on my mind. 

Stuck like we’re still in a bind. 

I never wanted to like you, but now that I have it’s like I can never go back. 

You’ve taken my heart, my soul, and my life, 

You’re eating my mind, as if you’ve been filled with strife. 

What’s next? 

Would you like to send another meaningless text? 

Another text about how you’re not sorry you left, 

About how you stole my heart like it was theft?
