I wanted to be your first choice
That's all I ever wanted
I liked you more than I like myself
I treasured you

You came to me
Asking to talk
I kept my hopes up
Hoping you would tell me how you feel
And that you did
You told me how you feel... about her
How she makes you happy
Oh how I felt that pain in my chest
Your words a facsimile of a knife
Unfortunately I survived the pain
I was happy for you and her

You came again
Asking to talk
You told me how you felt
About me
How you made a mistake with her
Oh how I lost my breath
Your words a facsimile of a bomb
Leaving my heart like minced meat
Now that she left
You came running back to me
Like your rebound
I was hurt and angry
Because I never wanted to be your second choice

Hey guys it's been a while. The exams killing me.
I hope you enjoyed the poem😎
