Broken Puzzle

I don't know how it happened

If it was just an attraction or a touch

But you left me for her

And I struggle to pick up the pieces

I hate you for throwing away everything we had

I miss your smile and how you held me

I smile when you talk in class

But cry in the confinements of my room.

Everyone tells me to move on

That you aren't worth the thought

But they weren't the one hurt

Or the one who has to feel my pain

I don't blame them for telling me that

To pull me away from you

It's easier said than done

And easier if you don't have to pick up the pieces.

You betrayed me

You cut into my heart

So why do I miss you so much

And hold on to our memories

Sometimes they bless me

Sometimes they curse me

They make me happy with our echoing laughter

They make me cry in frustration that you're no longer mine

How could you leave me for her

How could everything you ever told me be a lie

How could you throw me away

How could you abandon our

Memories

Dreams

Future

Touch

Trust

Friendship

I still pray you are well

That your family stays healthy

But I also pray for my future husband

For you never know who it may be

In the dark corners of my soul

I want you two to split

I want you to feel my pain

But even you don't deserve that

If you do split up

Would you come back to me?

But even if you did

It would take some time to return to you

Some days are better

Some days are worse

Some days I think about how your touch belongs to her now

Some days I think about how you wronged me

With each passing day

I gain a little more strength

The puzzle isn't yet complete

But I still haven't found all the pieces yet
