Sad Truths


                         Sad truths 

  • Can you ever leave me without dying inside? 

  • Everytime I look at you I can see the pain in your eyes, the fake smiles, but the real tears 

  • The day you took the pills I didn’t understand why, until the day you said sorry 

  • You didn’t want to leave me and neither did I, so you died that night in a hospital 

  • You never loved me did you? 

  • Why wouldn’t you just leave me? 

  • You were the saddest and happiest person I knew 

  • I was your light in the dark and yet I could always see the sadness in your eyes 

  • But the truth was, neither did I

  • That was the sad truth

  • I never loved you and you didn’t either

  • I got to attached, and yet I wasn’t the one that died 

  • You were drowning and I was just walking away loving you 

  • The happiest moments in my life were with you and so were the saddest ones 

  • You warned me not to get to attached because you were broken, I told you maybe I could fix you but I ended up just like you 

  • You act like the happiest person on this planet but when you get home you lock yourself in and visit the darkest place on this planet….. your mind 

  • I wished I never realized the truths behind you because it unlocked mine too 

  • The worst part of being sad is that I realize I used to love you more than myself 

  • Truths can sometimes hurt, but not as much as you hurt me
