When you finally
come to the realization
that you held
absolutely no meaning
in someone's life
who meant the world
to you,
it hurts.
Four months
and like that
it was all nothing.
You were always nothing.
There is a burning
within your heart
in which you feel
so much anger
towards him
because how could he
keep damaging you
despite being out of your life.
You see him
doing the same things
with her
that he did
with you,
and it's like a dagger
stabbed straight into your heart.
He just keeps twisting it
further and further
until the beating stops.
Maybe one day
it will actually quit.
Your heart strings
crumble beneath the weight
of this pain.
You wish every day
that he would just
disappear from your head,
yet somehow
the flashbacks
continue to drown you.
The pictures
they continue to haunt you
even in your dreams.
There is no escape.
He's perfectly fine
because you were meaningless
to him,
why can't you just
get over it?
