dry eyes

 

 

Whenever I'm alone

voices spring up in my head

telling me

it's time to clean up

the mess you left behind.

Although I know

that it was never meant to be,

you reap what you sow

so why can't you see

that if it had been you

and never had been me

I wouldn't be dead inside

and I would be free.

But instead you stayed

and continued the abuse

as I found some rope

and round my neck, tied a knoose.

You should have just killed me

gotten the job out of the way,

or shot me down

every time I begged you to stay.

But it was too much fun

playing with my heart,

I should have seen it coming

even from the start

when you said you loved me

right before we fell apart,

because your words were just words

and they were nothing but lies

I bet you were laughing inside

when you saw me cry.

Is it funny?

Did you find it amusing?

When all I wanted was to win

but always ended up losing

all your games

this isn't family night at your house

I know the game of life sucks

but can we stop playing cat and mouse?

I never said I wanted

someone to hide from

I just wanted you to care

 now I swear

It's never gonna happen again.

 incase you haven't noticed

that my eyes are dry

It's because you hurt me so bad,

now I can't cry.

This pain is irreversible

it's never gonna leave me,

unlike you

it will never deceive me

because it's real

and it's never fake

it always reminds me

of my number one mistake.

You should have left

you should have never stayed

because I've been scorned

and now you've got some hell to pay.

I think I may have been trying too hard with the rhyming...But please, tell me what you think. Please ignore all my spelling mistakes. I suck at spelling. But I really want to know if it's bad or if it's good. Please be honest :3
