You can wake up now?
No, none of that happened…
None of it is true
You can want it forever
But they’re not coming back for you
he never gave you those violets
just because it’s Tuesday
you didn’t take that trip to Cabo
he didn’t even call to see if you made it home, okay
You can delete all the pictures
But, you can’t remove him from your mind
He’ll haunt you crazy
While you try to pass the time
You can’t get his scent off your clothes
Even Gain can’t mask that feeling of alone
Delete your playlist, he’s ruined all your favorite songs
the words will hit your heart all wrong
See how he ruined you
I don’t know if there will be a next
Tell me was it love
Or did he just have something to prove
Is this just confusion?
He says: Tell me how have you been handling the self-inflicted delusions?
Just because we can’t see your heart,
That doesn’t mean there aren’t scars.
You try to hide from me
But I see you clear
How quickly did you pull away?
When anyone shows a sign that they might care?
It won’t always be this way
It won’t always be this hard
One day you’ll wake up
and healing is never too far

i simply loved it
thank you for writing this nice to see the other side of the pain. Being a man, your point of view is meaningful.
have this as a favorite.
makes me think of my ex and her side of things.
The dissonance between one who cares and another who doesn't is a difficult chasm to cross. Nicely written
