Why did you stop loving me?

by Hurtingsoul   Jul 5, 2017


Because you left me three years ago
Though I’ve been seeing you since then
That day you walked out the door,
You left me. Been wondering where you went

And yeah yeah, every couple of months go by
We take turns, keep each other’s bed warm
We stay silent, we never talk, never ask why
Been missing you, and it’s obvious, so I’m told

And don’t you dare say you’ve been here with me
Because your presence isn’t in the present
Your heart and soul left your body
Been three years of gathering resentment

These three years suffering momentary relapses
you’re in and out of my life, replay track
In and out, in and out, restless
But never had you come back

Every time I looked into your eyes, I couldn’t see you
Every time I held your hand, I couldn’t feel you
Kissing you until my lips ran raw, couldn’t taste you
Three years, finally back, but you’re leaving? Screw you!

You don’t get to come back in
Say you’re sorry, declare it’s too late
And leave me again!
I’ve wasted three years of my life to wait

Waited so long, I turned sweet to bitter
Trying so many times to leave you
Erasing memories with liquor
Ironically erased the ones where I hate you

Woke up one day in quiet desperation
Hired a PI, decided to track you
Thought you had joined the cheating nation
In hindsight, would have hurt less than the truth

You think I stopped loving you?
I didn’t.
You did.
Been three years hasn’t it?
