YOU

I wonder

did you tell her about me

the way you told me about her

did you compare every word she’d speak

to the tune of another girl

did you play on her emotions

of being the first man she ever loved

or did you reserve that torture for me

like your feelings were all just a bluff

did you apologize to her kindly

for not being there for her

or did you save all your “sorry’s”

to use on me at the bar

did you bring up good times

and get her to trust you again

or were your intentions always malicious

because you knew how it’d end

did you spend time with her family

or waste her time privately

Honest to God,

did you ever even think of me?

did you ever think what you did was wrong?

or was it all just a game and i’m the dumb one

who played along 

did you think you would hurt me?

or was that always your goal?

did you know that your silent release

would forever leave a toll?

my heart is shattered 

while hers get to mend

cause all I get to keep is

knowing I wasn’t enough in the end
