You didn't even try

What hurt me the most

Was the fact that you didn't even try.

You stared as I shattered

Into a million pieces like glass.

You didn't even half-halfheartedly

Try to tape the pieces together.

You didn't wipe away a single tear

Out of the myriad I've shed.

You didn't hold me once

While I cried myself to sleep.

You stood and watched with the others

While I became the catastrophe

By my very own design.

You and I both knew that

I was broken beyond repair,

But it would've been nice to know

That the one I held so dear

At least cared enough to stay

And to hold me as my soul

    d i s i n t e g r a t e d.

But you walked away without a second glance

At the broken girl you had left to die.

You didn't even try to save me.
