***Poetry I've Written*** For Myself

*** Well it's more of a song this week***

I closed my eyes and thought of you,

Your bitterness just wouldn’t do,

Walking away was oh so hard,

But the dealer gave out the final card,

There’s nothing more that we can say,

The sun is setting on this day.

I won’t cry for us,

I never would,

Don’t wait for me,

There’s nothing here to see.

[Chorus]

No broken memories remain,

I watched you tear them all away,

You sit and hate,

You make me wait,

You take all I’ve got,

Because you’re all I’m not,

You can’t have my health,

I’m keeping that just for myself.

I break the ice and fall into the sea,

Look at what you’ve done to me,

Your control cut wounds so deep and raw,

But still you can’t see your fatal flaw,

I turn around and take the blame,

This is why our love died without glorious flame.

Today is the day I don’t die for you,

Just so you know, I’m saying we’re through,

The time has come and we are gone,

You obviously weren’t the one.

[Chorus]

No broken memories remain,

I watched you tear them all away,

You sit and hate,

You make me wait,

You take all I’ve got,

Because you’re all I’m not,

You can’t have my health,

I’m keeping that just for myself.

A broken heart can always mend,

But our bridge is burnt and charred at my end,

I’ve taken all I ever will,

I’m not the one you’re going to kill.

[Chorus]

No broken memories remain,

I watched you tear them all away,

You sit and hate,

You make me wait,

You take all I’ve got,

Because you’re all I’m not,

You can’t have my health,

I’m keeping that just for myself.
