AND YOU LEFT

We had a pretty good thing going.
I thought you would stay.
EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT
AND YOU LEFT.
I can't bring myself to hate you.
We were too close for hate
But I guess not close enough for you to stay.
It was nice and all.
I guess you're moving on.
No more late nights
Or trading secrets.
No more hopes and dreams and beliefs that we will succeed.
WE WERE SUPPOSED TO DO THIS TOGETHER.
You left me behind.
You left me behind like I'm nothing.
I would NEVER.
And don't say I would,
Because I had the perfect opportunity to.
AND I DIDN'T.
YOU WERE IN MY MIND WHEN I SAID NO.
I guess I wasn't in yours when you said yes.
We had a pretty good thing going.
I thought you would stay.
So much for bonds made by trust instead of blood.
Because now that trust is gone and you can't get it back.
It feels empty inside.
I feel like I'm missing something.
Why does it hurt so much when it doesn't even matter?
Because it did matter!
It mattered to me and you threw it away like it was nothing, like I am nothing.
We had plans.
So many big plans.
Good luck on your journey.
But know this;
When you run I won't cheer for you.
But I will never jeer.
When you win I won't congratulate you.
But I will never spew hate.
Because deep down I still love you.
I don't want you to leave. We had chained each other together with compassion and you walked away from our chains like they were paper mache.
My heart is ripped from my chest and bleeding on the floor.
Were we not good enough?
It doesn'tmatter now.
You left.
