The dear sweet sound of ivory keys, touching softly on the strings.
I sigh as I play the things I wrote for you.
I play slow to seize the mood as I think of me and you and how happy we used to be.
But my dreams were torn to shreds as I lay awake in bed, the happy times are now forever gone.
I held your hand with hope filled eyes never then to realize the
disaster that about to strike.

I stuck you with duct tape to make sure you’d stay
Globs of super glue seemed to be the best way
I love you’s and only’s worked fairly well too
I did everything I could to delay our adieu

Your wrap said non-toxic and so I believed
Never thought that you’d lie, call me oh so naive
I was so glued to you, you were velcroed to me
And as I tried to keep you, I watched your retreat

But now that you’re gone, some bits stayed behind
The stupid stuffed animals, things we tried to hide
The security I had sticks tight to my skin
Some parts of me gone, new ones hard to begin

His sweater is all I have left of him
My only proof he ever existed
The only evidence that he once adored me

I sleep with it at night
And pretend the sleeves are his arms
Holding me tight
I breathe in the fragrance
Before it fades away
Not from the fabric but from my memory

You could smell that blue sweater
And not smell a thing
But when I get close to it
I can smell everything;
The memories we once shared
Back when he used to care
Before I had these nightmares
Where I couldn’t run away
From this ache in my chest so great
I would cry out from the pain
But all he could do was laugh in my face

My voice must now be forgotten
My face no longer remembered by him…

The pain is still present
Because our love is no longer shared
But I can sleep at night
Because his sweater is still there

I thought of you today.
I think of you all the time.
I wanted you to stay.
Your always in my mind.
I wanted you for me,
But the magic blew away.

I know you didn’t care.
I understand that now.
But when I think of you,
I feel so warm inside.
I wanted you for me,
But never could that be.
Only thoughts of hope.
And knowing there is none.

I dream of ignoring you everyday for the next month as I walk down the hall.
I constantly have the thought of one day slapping you dead in the face.
I never thought I could ever be that mad at you.

But I am.
You are the source of my pain these past days.
You toy’d with my emotions and somehow expect me to be okay with it.

I couldn’t understand how it is humanly possible to feel one way about a person,
And the next day,
Change it all.

But I do now.
I learned that it was nothing but wasted time on you.
I thought you were special,
But you’re not.

I learned to not judge a book by it’s cover.
Even if the judgment is good.
‘Cause you weren’t.

I’m not really in the mood to stay friends with you even if you think it’s a great idea.
It would probably be another waste of my time.
