One-Sided Remembrance
I saw an old friend of ours,
I asked how you were,
Apparently, nothing changed,
You are always just the same.
Why am I broken, while you're standing tall?
Why is your tremendous joy so bright,
While darkness is overcoming my light?
You changed me,
But I didn't change you.
I was just another pair of shoes, thrown away once finished.
You're moving on,
I'm holding back.
I have chances at a second love, but I say, "No!" simply because I met you.
My heart can't love another,
Yet yours never loved one.
While I cry out in pain, do me a little favour,
And remember me, the one who loved you enough to stay,
But you kicked away.
