I told myself

I told myself

A 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.
