Submitted by pennomoly

Did You Know?
Did you know
How loved you were? You had to know that. Didn’t you?
When three walked in and two walked out
Did you know?
Did you know
Who I was like I knew who you were?
Did you know my name? I’ll never know
The answers to these questions
It doesn’t matter
But you mattered
You mattered more than anything
It’s not fair how it ended.
Did you know
That you’re the reason I’m still here?
I know you don’t. I know this answer, but it’s an honest one. There’s nothing that could be more true.
There is no such thing as painless
Pain lasts. It never rusts. We grow around our pain like ivy.
Did you know
How loved you were? You deserved to know.
