i said that i loved you,
but you couldn't hear it 
you were with the others,
drinking up your feelings 
singing your favorite song,
i thought it was a prose but,
it was really just an ode to her. 

i said that i loved you,
but your selflessness entwined
with another's soul
you played the catharsis of a tragic hero,
i've always wondered-
if it was the right thing
then how come ,
i'm the only one bleeding

i know that i only think about me,
i can still hear the echos
of vain and selfish,
i have always stared at your walls,
and watched you let others in,
wishing for my golden ticket,
but i received your wilting roses
and a note with all the imaginary words
that i wish that i had heard,
and i'm lying on my bed, cursing,

couldn't you hear
when i said that i loved you?
you always said that
actions speak loud,
but not loud enough, 
and you were right.
but i still go back to you,
all the time.
