NOTHING HURTS MORE

Nothing hurts more than ignored.

It hurts when I disobey my parents

in order to obey you and yet I’m ignored.

It hurts when I travel all the way just to visit

and show you that I care about you and yet I’m ignored.

Nothing hurts more than replaced.

It hurts when I think of those days

you used to tell me I will always

be your one and only and yet I’m replaced.

It hurts when I think of that day

I was leaving you when you said

I would come back to meet you waiting for me

and yet I came back only to find out that I’ve been replaced

Nothing hurts more than forgotten.

It really hurts when I remember those days you would say to me

that my name will always be on your lips and that to you

I was unforgettable and yet after leaving you for a period of time,

I had to introduce myself and almost all about me

before you could remember I once existed on this planet.
