Flying Away || Poetry

Don't Belong Anymore

I wish you'd move on

I wish you'd find someone to love as much as you loved me

Cause I'm already gone

And I'm not coming back anymore

I'm tired of playing along

With your stupid games and tricks

Cause I don't belong

No, not anymore, with you

I wish you'd realize that and let go

Because I'm already gone;

I'd rather be on my own

I'm not your ghost anymore

I'd rather be alone

I'm not gonna let myself be compared to you anymore

I'll let my tears brush the window pane, then I'll swallow my pride and my pain

And get a moving on, cause I'm tired of thinking that my ending is going to end like those fairytales I used to dream about

This ain't a fairy tale; it's a dull life, full of old news

This ain't a Shakespeare, it's not dramatic

This ain't a beautiful ending, no matter how much I want it to be

Maybe it started perfect, but that was our mistake

Cause we're so different now.

You're loved, I can't remember the last time I said I was good and meant it

You're listened to, I don't even try anymore

You're happy, I've only learned to hold the tears until I'm alone

You're wanted, and I'm alone and gone and selfish and stupid

For ever thinking that it'd all work itself out

I  stopped trying

And you should too.
