Dear former love,

You promised forever,
And said you loved me.
I believed your words and never
Thought this is how it'd be.

I hung on every word,
Every touch that came
From you. It never occurred
To me this could be a game.

Was all of this a lie to you?
Was this just a way to pass time?
Unsure of what I meant to
You. Tears my punishment, love my crime.

For now I ache, though
Not as much as I did yesterday.
Your actions may have been for show,
But they always did make my day.

Unsure what to think,
What to feel,
I refuse to sink
In sadness and deal

With my hurt by
Talking with friends.
What I felt and said was no lie,
 And I'm surprised this is where it ends.

You were everything to me,
My love, life, happiness.
Now I'm finding a way to be free
And make this pain less.

You hurt me, it's true,
But I will keep my head high
And try not to think of you.
I wish the best for you. This is goodbye.

Sincerely,
Your Ex.
