Not anymore

I can feel it
It was lost years ago
But my heart still aches
I still want it
The love I never had

You were there
But you left many years ago

I was the mom
I was the dad
I was the adult
When I was only 10

It was my fault
I spoke
Because you didn't dare

I was just a pretty thing
I meant nothing to you

You watched me cry
You watched me yell
You never cared

Ugly. Useless
All the words you told me
Stuck in my head
Waiting to be deleted

I try
I try to get away from you
But you're always there

I cared
I tried
Harder than anyone has before
But it doesn't matter now
Because I don't love you
Not anymore
