A Storm of Words

𝔸 𝕊𝕙𝕒𝕥𝕥𝕖𝕣𝕖𝕕 𝔻𝕣𝕖𝕒𝕞

Everything was going fine
You looked amazing
I wish you'd be mine
But I guess I'm not so lucky

Before I saw your arms around her
I was on cloud nine
There was joy and laughter
You were so kind

But time stood still
As I took the sight in
Your protective arms around her
Comforting..?
Or were they an indication
Of something more?

I silently watched as you
Continued to torment me
Internally, I was screaming
Mentally, I was crying
Drowning in endless despair

The way you held her
So intimately
The tsunami of emotions
Tossing inside me
Were begging to lay waste

To destroy everything
To burst out crying
To have a breakdown
Or to march right up to you
And tell you how I feel.

I thought you understood,
Didn't you?
Were you not 'the one' for me?
The light to guide me out of this
Dark hollow pit of endless doom?

All I can bring myself to ask now
Is
Why?

Maybe I wasn't special enough
Or maybe you're just too good for me
Maybe it was all just a bluff
To welcome me
'Cause I was the 'new kid'

Honestly, I don't know why I try
I should just walk away from love
And bid it goodbye

I hope you're happy with your girl
You deserve all the happiness
In the world
I just wish that I could've been the one to put a smile on your face
But that's not my job

It's hers.
