Poem 32

  You should've been a writer, you're good at telling stories

But let me tell you baby, it's getting kinda boring

Telling all those lies, making us think that they were true

Story after story and you dared to say "I love you"

You got behind our walls and underneath our skin

Seeing what there was to see, then breaking everythin'

I can't believe this happened, we thought you were for real

None of us expected to feel the way we feel

But I'm not gonna diss you or tell you to take your life

But don't think that because of you, our skin's tasting a knife

Yes you may have fooled us, but that's not how it ends

'Cause boy you brought us closer, we have supportive friends

You played all of us like we were your favorite game

But let me tell you baby, you should be ashamed

How can you lead us on, through the months and through the years?

Because of your damn story, we were forced to live in fear

"Will he die today? Tomorrow or the next?"

I can't believe all this started with just one fucking text

You took control of us but now we're taking it back

Because we've all started to see all the qualities you that lack

Don't think that without you, my heart is sad and dark

Because honestly without you, I'm feeling a hot spark

Yes, it may have hurt to learn it all was just one big lie

And yes it truly hurt for me to finally say goodbye

But without you here with me, I'm taking control and finding who I am

Who needs a fucking liar when I got the help of fam?

I'll get my life of track and sometimes I'll feel down

But I'll no longer rely on you to fix all of my frowns

I hope you have a good life, I really wish you the best

While you're off getting STDs I'll be chillin with the rest

Of the people you fucked over when you faked who you are

And who knows maybe one day, I'll become a shining star

I hope one day you look back and realize you went wrong

And that you'll realize what we gave you was what you needed all along

And if you try to contact us and one of us dares to reply

I hope you choose to finally explain why

Why you chose to hurt us, why we were the victims of your crime

And why you decided just to waste all of our precious time

I will not say I love you nor will I say you shall be missed

Because when the truth came out all that adoration made us pissed

You lied and said you loved us, you claimed to understand

Made yourself out to be the guy who always lends a hand

But when we gripped your arm so tight and asked you to help us out

All you did was let us fall, walked away without a doubt

Thanks for all the laughs, babe, thanks for all the pain

Thanks for everything you showed me I had left to gain

I wish this was a nightmare, I didn't expect us to end so soon

But let's face it, since the day I met you, my life was surely doomed

One day the girls and I and of course that one dude Z

Will drink some margaritas and recall you happily

Then one us, most likely I, last girl in fam you dared to "love"

Will say we all did good with you when push came to shove

We'll clink our glasses and say our cheers

Because we did good without you these past few years
