Poems - Breakup Day

Breakup Day

by self-express

i fell in love
got emotionally connected
gave it my all
and I fell flat on my ass.
I lied, sneaked, betrayed and hurt everyone around me to be with you
And you never gave any of it appreciation.
While I searched for a lifetime of forever with you
You gladly laid out all Id ever wanted.
Even though I heard it all before
Your voice made it sound real.
Trustworthy.
The devil making a deal.
Cause you were nothing more than a seasonal greeting
An almost lover
Equipped with qualities I yearned for
Built with an attitude I really did care for.
So I stopped calling us love
Stopped thinking about making up
Only cared about breaking up.
Cause your toxins are for the little fragments of a heart
I have left
Waiting for you to screw up so I have a reason to lash out
Bitch much, get it all out and say screw us
Cause I’m done.
Done trying to please you
Put a smile on your face
Help you get a job and your own place
Fuck it! It was a phase
A momentary spec of weakness
Like a pause in the middle of a breakup song.
I had it all wrong
Like when I thought pinky promises where real
Or if we shook hand we had a solid deal
Or when they told me that it’s like riding a bike
You never forget.
But I forgot how beautiful a monster could look
How sweet an onion can taste
How melodic a lie can sound
How gentle heartbreak can feel when you don’t suspect it happening.
then it feels like nine eleven all over again
shocked. You don’t what emotion to feel first
anger
disappointment
sadness
stupidity
I settled on hurt. I cried. Asked why.
Then fell asleep hoping yesterday doesn’t become todays tomorrow.
