Leaving the Past Behind (I Still Don't Forgive You)

That feeling

When you stare outside the window of a moving car

Watching a music video of your life

Play behind your eyes 

To cheesey lowfi

Wondering what your ex is doing

Are they suffering like I want them to? 

Do they miss me? 

I don't miss you

Time has past

But that pit

Where I can't forget the misery

The abuse

The craving freedom

Without the ability to escape

It was July

Corn fields were filled with swaying stocks

I graduated on winged grades

I remember throwing that necklace 

You had gifted me for christmas

At your feet

Tears in my eyes

Screaming

Why couldn't you love me

Like when we first met

But then again

Those rose colored glasses had to come off sometime 

And when I ran

My eyes were on fire

Even across the country

You still managed to control me

Wrapped around your finger 

Until too many lines of coke

And a suicide attempt

Showed me 

You never loved me

How many times did I block you

Just to hear about you from a mutual friend 

It's been three years

And yet I still have to ask you

Beg you

Please just stay dead
