Your once-shining heart rusted more each time I shed a tear for you,
Whilst my heart was coated in patina, green
With naïveté & jealousy.
You know I still love you, perhaps more than ever, now.
My love only grew with each passing day, as yours seemed to diminish
And now it's finished.
A cruel role reversal, a switch of place, replaced.
You elevated me, then erased.
Tell me, was it really that easy for you, or
Were you saving face?
I waxed as you waned, you watched me writhing.
I wonder if you're ever ashamed of the way you left me
Or if you're ashamed that you ever loved me.
