My Kokoro No Longer Doki Doki For You

My heart once
Fluttered for you.
Happiness making my mouth
Curl into a smile, has happiness makes you do.

But those days are gone,
The feelings no more.
There's no way to love you,
Even if your words you were sorry for.

Those last words, that last conversation to me
Dropped heavy like stones.
Echoed in my head,
Reverberating painfully in my bones.

All the things you told me
Were just lies from the start;
That you loved and would never leave me
Who would've know that you had such a hollow heart?

Mine was once hollow,
Hard and cold too.
But with the love of my mother,
Of that I got through.

I am not the girl
That I once was anymore.
I was rid of her long ago,
Left her on a breaking shore.

But now she creeps back,
Hoping to feed again.
On my breaking heart shards,
And within them, the pain.

But I send her back
To that faraway land
Where there is no peace
And coarse is the sand.

I shall live here
In the only love I need.
The love of my mother
And the love of Christ's heed.

I am in a place
Where I am at peace.
No way would I let you
Have your negativity this place lease.

So I shall let go
And bid the past adieu
Because there's no use
Crying over you.

My heart once danced
To the beat of your drum
But now you're gone,
And our relationship has its sum.

So goodbye, farewell;
Have a great life.
I wish you happiness
Instead of strife.

Just because my kokoro
Doki doki hurts, that's true.
It will no longer doki doki
No longer for you.
