A Tragedy

Why are you with me?
I no longer make you happy.
Your smile no longer reaches your eyes.
There's no hesitation when you tell me lies.
When was our last date?
There's no part of you I hate.
But there's no love between us anymore.
I don't have the strength to walk out the door.
I know there's no more me and you.
And I know you know this too.
You asked "what are we?"
I answered "a tragedy."
We were never ment to be.
You were never ment for me.
Loving you has left me sceptical.
Wondering if my heart will ever be full.
It's time for the breakup that we need.
But not one we want to feel freed.
