Dear Trey

Dear Trey,



It’s been two long years and I still think of it now;

The humming of the lights and the sounds of the crowd.

I can still feel the knots that twisted inside

And the clumsy bits of glitter that caught in my eye.

Your face wasn’t there among the others that gazed

But I continued on strong, as though I weren’t even fazed.

I kept my chin held high and refused to accept

But I gave up at the end of the night and wept.

An unfathomable bond was severed that day,

So don’t pretend as if we’re suddenly okay.

I guess it’s just easier for you to play this game,

To imagine that this life is flawless and sane.

You haven’t seen me once and you haven’t tried to care

And I’m so sick of feeling like I can’t breathe the air.

I tried to repair all of the pieces you broke,

But you scattered them to the winds the moment I spoke.

Why is it so hard for you to look me in the eye?

To acknowledge the fact that you made me cry.

It’s been two long years and I can’t forget it now;

The sweat running down and my complete disavow.

Your face wasn’t there among the others that were

And I can’t forgive you, Trey, for letting this occur.

So, I write you these words with a sad song in my heart,

With absolutely no intention of ever letting them depart.
