I have gained nothing but pain

You destroyed every part of me,

Now I am scared to feel

All because of you.

 

I was thinking about the day we met

It was clear that this would hurt

Now I am broken

All because of you.

 

You don’t realize your effect on me

It simply doesn’t cross your mind

Now I am lost  

All because of you.

 

I believed in something more

It would have been real  

Now I am irrelevant

All because of you.

 

I gave you every part of me

A mistake that constantly repeats

Now I am a fool

All because of you.

 

I held on so tightly

Until you abruptly let go

Now I am falling

All because of you.

 

I was mesmerized by your eyes

A deep ocean blue

Now I am drowning

All because of you.

 

I thought I was special

Something like a gem

Now I am nothing but an object

All because of you.

 

I ate up every word you spoke

But they left me with emptiness

Now I am hollow

All because of you.

 

You protected me, always

From everyone but you

Now I am bruised

All because of you.

 

You made me feel alive

Then one day it became a lie

Now I am numb

All because of you.

 

I wrote you letters

Containing words I am afraid to say

Now I am silent  

All because of you.

 

I refuse to run back to you

I sprint in a different direction

A direction with someone else

I patched myself up, like I said I would

Now I am mended

All because of me.
