Shattered

Amiss

Amiss.

You lied to me,

I trusted you,

You broke my heart,

What to do.

I lay on the floor,

My souls in shards.

How long 'till I get over you?

Who knew it would be so hard.

No matter how much I try,

I can never lift myself up,

I can never brush away the memories,

These memories of us.

You promised me forever.

But forever came and went.

I am now an empty vessel.

My love has been spent.

You were a nightmare,

I am glad to be awake.

Away from your lies,

Away from my greatest mistake.

But even as I promise myself,

I can never forget you,

You disappeared from my life,

You left before your cue.

I wonder I you ever,

Gave me a second thought.

I wonder if you've erased me,

Just like you ought.

Everything we had,

Disappeared in the smoke,

Only the lingering memories remain,

And the pain you evoked.

With a swipe of my hand,

I erase you forever.

With an aching heart,

I try not to remember.

I struggle to lift myself,

My heart heavy with regret.

I allowed you to slip away.

If only I could forget.

My soul has been crushed,

My heart shattered,

I love you still,

You always mattered.

Although you have moved on,

Please remember this,

You were my first and last,

But we went amiss.
