Me.

You said…

You said you loved

me.

You said…

You said you’d be there for

me.

You looked in my dark eyes

And fed me with your lies

And I...

I believed in

you.

I trusted you.

I gave you my all.

Everything I had.

I gave to

you.

Why…

Why am I so gullible?

Why don’t I ever learn that

You.

you are nothing more than an empty promise

Nothing more than…

            A web of lies

Spun to fill the gaping whole you feel inside so you

Take it out.

Take everything out on me and you

Scream and hit me until I

bleed.

And these…

Tears. They drip from my face and you

You, you stare at me

Unaware of the pain you’ve caused me because

You.

you are nothing more than a nightmare that keeps me awake

Nothing more than…

            Haunted faces that taunt me every day

Because, you have no face of your own

So you steal mine.

You take away what makes me, me.

And I, I do nothing.

nothing.

I can only do nothing.

Because, you.

You were my everything.

And now…

Now you’ve left me with

nothing.

I can’t eat.

I can’t sleep.

I can’t think.

Because all I dream about is

you.

And I hate myself for wanting you.

Because…

Because I know you don’t want me.

I know you don’t need

me.

A twisted memory is all I’ll ever be

So, you.

You with your fiery eyes and

mouthful of lies

and faded disguise

and sad goodbyes…

You win the prize.

You’ve won the prize

And it isn’t

me.
