What Hurts the Most

Feelings linger

I sometimes question my decision

Perhaps it is naiveté

But I almost believe you when you say you’ve changed

 

But in the end, I know the truth

Someone else has already taken my place

What we have has got to end

 

What hurts is that still you lie

Constantly, you maintain this foul habit

You maintain that I’ll always have your heart

But I never had it to begin with

 

I wish that I could be happy for you

But that is beyond my capability

It hurts to know that I am so easily passed up

 

But what hurts the most is letting go

What eats at me is knowing that time was wasted

Looking back, I see so clearly the signs

That the end of us had arrived

 

But still I fought

Still I held on

And in the end it was for nothing

You moved on with ease

And now with heavy heart I must do this

It hurts me far more than you

But I must release you completely

And I must move on
