I’ve realized I don’t owe you anything
Why do I feel like I owe you the world?
Everywhere I look,
I see remnants left of you and me
What we should be
I won’t take down the pictures
I won’t erase your name
Cuz that would mean you’re really, truly gone
I can’t believe it all worked out like this
That sweatshirt that you bought me?
Should’ve been in the corner by now
Instead, I’ll wear it every day.
It’s the only thing that’s left of me and you
God knows that I’ve been cryin’
And I’ll probably cry some more
I just can’t bear the thought of movin’ on
We’ve shared too many things
Went way too deep, too fast
And still I swore we’d come out of it strong
Well I refuse to bite my tongue
Admit that I was wrong
I still believe that you were meant for me
You know that I’ll wait
You know I won’t move on
Whatever you’ve gotta fix, I’ll be here when you do.
Author notes
Yet again, a poem I just wrote about my break-up. Poetically, I'd say this heartbreak is a great thing for me. But I'd take him over inspiration, any day.
