Over and Over

Time and time again you hurt me,

Over and over again,

I cry.

I struggle to grasp the thought,

But I can’t.

Why?

Why do I let you do this to me?

Why do I keep writing about the same boy?

You don’t deserve the words I write.

The conversations revolve around you.

But why?

Why do I keep writing and speaking about the boy who time and time again hurt me?

Why?

Why do I let you do this to me?

Why do I keep writing and speaking about the same boy who deserves not even a little of my attention?

You broke my heart,

And then I broke it again.

So now over and over again,

I’m replaying your favorite movie,

and the songs that make me think of you are forever branded into my brain,

replaying so much I can practically see the words flying by.

I can almost feel your touch.

You’re long gone,

But I can feel your in front of me.

Let go,

Walk away,

Farther into the darkness.

I’m wishing your pain with every step,

With aspiration for your return with every stride.

I’m calling out for help,

Let me go.

Amazing. It feels like my own monsters screaming back at me. This is heartbreaking, Serena, and you did a really great job at breaking me. Hahaha. I love the repetitions and the simplicity of thoughts. And how they help make your message create a good impact to readers. Good write. You deserve applause. :)
