I'll fake a simple smile
make it all seem ok
put together all the pieces
I told you they wouldn't fit the same
all the empty bottles
broken in the sink
reminders of all the lies
we denied to speak
forgive me for YOUR sins
and not hearing your cries
I took your sins
and made them MINE
I thought
nothing was worth losing me over
Nothing I said made it right
you lied till my mind ran out of questions
love..??
was so far out of the question
liar..??
every word you said
never had an ounce of truth
history..??
we NEVER happened
mourning I love you's
six feet under in a wooden box
You gave up so quickly
and didn't give me a chance
to explain my side,
you were the only one who hurt
Sarcasm is awsome isn't it??
I wasted my time and emotions
on YOU
Where were you're wasted emotions and time on ME
and even though i still hurt
I wouldnt trade
- a day
- a hour
- a minute
- a second
because i'm not better off
never knowing you
I admit it..
!!FINALLY!!
you can breathe now
because I stopped holding my breath
long ago
last three words:
i'm done healing

Very powerful write here. Kudos for expressing such personal emotions. I can feel this and second it, though it's the opposite with me in the contest. I can't help but hurt still and 4 words I would have to utter would be, 'I Still Love You'. Loved how emotive this write was.

this is a very up to date poem, i've only now stopped healing after almost a year of being broken hearted. Thank you for your comment.
