I told myselfA Poem by Andrea
I told myself I didn't love you anymore.
But I knew it was a lie. I told myself I could live without you. But I knew I was wrong. Whatever I held from you, I couldn't let you know. I couldn't even tell you, that I never let you go. I just locked my feelings away. I buried my burdens in the darkness. My heart suffered the worst. This picture was black and white. My emotions shot through like a bullet in my chest. I tried to run far away. I let myself go first. I ran and I ran, telling myself that I didn't care. I walked along the shore telling myself it wasn't fair. I had a broken heart. And you ended up with better. It was the price I paid for breaking your heart. When you moved on, I felt alone. Now I was just a wound for you to remember like a scar. I told myself it'd be fine. But that was the worst lie I have ever told myself besides the first.
