It hurts deep inside, though it has to be done

She really did try, but it wasn’t enough

She thought that maybe he was just misunderstood

An unfortunate soul who’d not yet found any good

But all of that sadness, turned into anger

The man he became, like a total stranger

His words that had once been a promise of peace

Just the method he used to bring her to her knees

The lies, and the secrets, and then the neglect

The incapability of showing her basic respect

She realized that life was too short for these games

Though at first it might hurt, he didn’t love her the same

She had to let go, not continue to fight

Though it tore up her heart, it could only be right

So she packed up her things, and she left a small note

“One day you may meet someone just like you ” she wrote

“And then you will see how it feels to be mocked

And told you’re imagining things when they’re caught

And maybe then you’ll understand

Why it is you will never see my face again”.
