To A Boy


To a boy,

I feel as though I was cheated

Out of getting to express my emotions toward you

I had you one moment

And then you were gone

And that was that

At first I felt broken, lost, unloved

My heart was torn from my chest

The tears were coming so fast I couldn't see

I couldn't breath

I couldn't think

Soon the waves of despair and agony were swept away

A new feeling took their place

One of anger and hatred

Toward you, toward me, toward everything we had been

How could you go after so long

Like I was nothing to you when you meant so much to me

But how could I hate you

The boy who gave me so much life

In the end you were forgiven

Because you were truly the best

And you deserve to be happy

 Even if that happiness isn't with me

I wish you all the best in life

Maybe someday you'll read this

Maybe someday you'll understand

Everything you put me through

And all the things I could never say

Sincerely,

A girl
