the words rang true
like candy-coated dreams
in swirls of happiness
but as time
passed us by
and shadows lurked
in the distance,
it became
more of
a nightmare
as I began
to realize
what a waste
it was
to spend my time
on a mundane,
boring old thing
like you
so I threw you
in my garbabe
of rotting memories
and discarded love
as you fought
to find
a way back
into my heart
Author notes
Prompt~
Forgive me for being so cold,
turning my back on you
but you were no good for me
so I had to throw you into the garbage
of my past. Forgive me.
