Those Days

On the days when I can't bear to fake a smile,
The days when I don't know how to feel
On the days when all the happiness appears as a mirage,
You're the only thing that's real

On the days when I can't stand to face the world,
On the days I can't bear to see my face
On the days when I don't have even a shred of self confidence,
All my insecurities you erase

On the days that stretch on for millions of hours,
The days I can't hold on for long
On the days I know I'm not in control,
You make me feel beautiful and strong

On the day when you realize I'm an emotional whirlwind,
The day you realize you can't go on this way
On the day that it dawns on you that it's time to leave,
Remember: without you, I wouldn't be here today.

When I wrote this, I didn't truly believe you were capable of leaving.
I didn't think you could give up on me so easily.

Why? Because you promised that you loved me. You promised that you'd stay.

And now, I'm not here anymore. That girl is gone. She was broken, not by her mind, but by you.

At least now she can blame someone other than herself.
