Heartless- a poem
Waiting for the tears to fall.
I still don’t know who to blame.
You for making me do this,
Or myself for feeling shame.
Cause you never really loved me.
You just played the part of what I wanted well.
But that’s just what liars do,
Talk the talk til we believe their tales.
Still, waiving this white flag isn’t easy,
Thanks to repercussion.
Funny how you’re sitting pretty,
While I’m faced with mass destruction.
But what's left to presume after all those childish fits you threw?
I wonder if it makes you feel any better,
Now that we are through.
Although, I only dated you because I was sick of jerks.
I never thought one was lurking all along underneath your shirt.
I just trusted and believed everything you said you felt.
Clearly you had me cozily swindled up all too well.
And I should’ve called your bluff on all those cries that you cried out.
But I cared about you.
So for that I will never condemn myself.
But I do remember telling you how true colors always come out.
And you lied right at me so remarkably well.
Then told me how everyone always leaves.
But gave me no reason to stay.
What an expectation to expect,
From someone you set free.
You still had to go out of your way to make me look like a fool.
When you threw that drink on me in public,
Did it make you feel cool?
Because it made me feel humiliated and really really cold.
I never thought you would turn out to be so heartless,
Even though I sensed your bullshit was getting old.
But in the end, that revenge of yours didn’t break me.
It just made me feel more numb.
After everything you did to me,
This heartless heart is fucking glad we’re done.
