Sorry Broke Me

It's funny.
You and me, we loved.
you not as much as I possibly had, and still do.
But I guess you just don't understand that the one thing,
the only thing,
I want for you is someone better.

Which is why I had to let you go.
I'm a mess.
I'm a hurricane destroying
I'm a lightning bolt setting fire
trying too hard for you led me here
it led me to the bitterness
the sick taste of my own thoughts.

Now I can't even look at your face
without the slightest thought
of who you once were.
You were my best friend,
the one I gave everything for.

But you left me in the ground
after I wanted time to be myself.
And for that I'm sorry.
No, not sorry for being me.
But simply sorry
I couldn't be who you wanted me to be.

Now I see a stranger, someone I've never met.
Someone I may have passed
on the street in the past,
but no longer a lover.

No longer my friend.
You and me
are just two strangers
with a long, unknown history.
