You swatted my heart away as if it were a fly

Never did I cry

It was painful to face an infinite abyss

Never did you admit you would be lost without me or amiss This is not my house

I remained quiet as an itsy bitsy shrew mouse

I should have left long ago

I grew too attached; I know...

Time flies when you think too much You were my crutch

I never did stand up to the hushing it began with infinite blushing

Now we are no more

Vacuuming your worries has become a chore

I will forever feel my heart locked in a jailbird cell

There was one time you tried to call but I missed my notification bell

I called back

Your failure to answer spiked my mind on a giant thumbtack

You made everything pause

With an unjust cause

You swatted my heart away as if it were a fly

Never did I cry
