Here we go....
i.
I don't believe anything would go forward with someone. Now. Not even with you.
ii.
Tell my friends it was all my fault. All mine. Believe the same. I can never put you down infront of them, atleast.
iii.
Sometimes, when I break, you're the one I get reminded by. No matter, what.
I am yet to figure out, whatever you do; damage or heal.
iv.
I crave for your warmth so bad that when he whispers in my ear, I cringe.
Go home and comfort myself, he won't leave unlike you.
v.
It does sound poetic to hit an ex-lover after 5-6 years down the lane, but trust me it's not.
I would rather prefer killing myself before that.
vi.
Leaving you, I thought, would take away the burden off my chest, but it didn't.
Not, for you were pretty good.
You were not.
Now whenever I try to find comfort in him all I am left in is grief and anxiety about him, leaving me.
vii.
They say it's a lesson. Learn it and thank them.
I put my time in. You let it all go wasted.
Made me think it was all my fault. still.
I don't thank you. Not at all.
viii.
If you ever miss me, someday. Keep it with yourself.
That's the best you can do to spare my shredded heart.
So, please!
