The Truth About You

Time passes and things change.

Things that were once so important, forgotten.

I’m expendable to you, 

Just another once loved object put away on a shelf.

I’ll collect dust, all while thinking about you.

About how you use to make me smile,

About the way I could hear your heartbeat when we laid close.

You were the downfall of me.

One day I was there, and then I was gone
.
But you never came looking.

A day passed, a week and then a month.
You didn’t try to find me and it hurt too much to come back.

Your words that I held so close,

Just lies to fill the silence.

I took them to heart though,

And now they won’t stop replaying in my mind.

You’re like a broken record,

A dream I can’t wake up from.

I don’t think, even as time goes on, 

That I'll ever forget how you wronged me.
