The Pain in You

I look around me.

You left me.
You're the one who shattered my heart,
Wrecked my world,
So why do I let you in every time?

Now I look at the future.
I see your new "clique",
But is it?
Are they just using you?
Do they truly know you like I did?
Could they possibly help you
Be your best self, like I always did for
You?

Now I see you crash and burn.
Now I see the pain reflected in your eyes.
Now I see the real girl,
And not some fake girl
That just tries to get by.

I know you're reading this.
I know that's true.
So maybe this is a message.
A message for me to help you.

I have overcome that pain I once felt.
Became a stronger person because of it.
But now I see it in you.
Should I feel happy?
Getting to see the pain in someone
That caused it in me?
But no.
I feel sympathy.
All I want to do it hug you
And say it'll be okay.
But it's not that easy, right?
You never make it that easy.
