For days now, it lingers.

Festering in my mind.

The sneer on your face, the pride in your tone.

I recognize your unique voice, your broken words.

I come back to moments,

where you and I stood.



Stirred from rumours, and what I know for myself.

The girl who replaced me,

is just like me,

so I've heard.



For months now, I wonder.

Your eyes appear, bleeding through my happiness.

I remind myself of your hatred, your unintention to love.

I've numbed myself to ever feel so much again.



And I kill myself with 'what-could-have-beens'.

How selfishly, how cowardly you reeled me in.

You were so beautiful...

your soul like mine...



For years now, the regret swells.

Dwelling on moronic words we split.

No word ever strong enough to lift your sorrows.

Forever blaming myself, for what you did.



But one too many times I've let you in.

..Even now..

These words aren’t strong enough.

As I was never strong enough for you.

You always wanted someone who could never break.



And there, I lay broken, as I let you know

how much I loved you.

There the silence began, the hatred you poured,

the defensive nature, which I always knew, and still loved.

It came from you, as I thought it never could.



I've missed you. For days now, for months now, for years.

I lost my best friend because of your fears.

I'll always love you, and you'll never know:

In days, nor months, nor years.
