Word Shards

Goodbye

I have no reasons to be hurt, no reasons to cry
Yet how couldn't I
If I knew that your smile's not meant for me
Your sweet words that set me free

Your hugs that made me warm
Your presence that made me calm
Your strange humor that made me laugh
Till my eyes would puff

Your most embarrassing moments are etched in my mind
You were such an odd boy, a strange kind
Your goofiness and clumsiness, by the way
I still remember them every day

Your mispronounced words, your weird promises
I still remember your gentle caresses
We were happy weren't we? You said we'll be forevermore
Until, I notice we weren't anymore

I remember how your hugs loosend, caresses barely there
Your eyes looked like they don't care
Your smile strained, your hands no longer bold
I have never seen you so cold

I wondered where we went wrong
It seems that just yesterday, we were holding on so strong
Oh, I was the one holding on
I didn't feel any response from your hand, it hurts a ton

I was the only one holding
Your hand, bit by bit, unnoticed, is slipping
Slipping, just like how you are in my life
Your grasp loosend without a fight

Your clutch, restless, discontent, uneasy
I knew this day would come, but it doesn't mean it'll be easy
To let you go and move on, to see you with another
Sometimes I think, I should have loved you deeper
Because, even if I loved you longer
Between me and her, you would have loved her stronger
