Poetry For The Broken

why

I love you I said
Then why did you leave he asked
You made me feel as if I was never enough
But I didn't say that he said
You didn't have to I replied
I was walking away from him I loved him the whole world knew it except him
It was so hard to walk away I made up multiple reasons why I should let go
See it wasn't that I wasn't happy with him I was but we were a wreck
I was hot tempered and he was rather annoying
He was cold and distant and I had no problem in screaming out our issues to his face
I made the decision to break up after our argument I was done raising my voice everyday
We could have tried to talk it out and maybe everything will fall back into place
I believe I deserve the world and he couldn't give me that
He had too many shortcomings and I hated compromising
Deep down I knew I would never love anyone like him
Why did he have to be so wrong yet so perfect
Why do I love him
Why do I even have to leave
Why do I keep thinking I should hold on
