I was thinking of calling you today
Then I thought of how your ego would grow
So I’ll write a poem and call it closure
A few final words before I let you go
I hope you’re happy now, or at least
I hope you found whatever I couldn’t give
I’m not wishing you any unhappiness
Though I’ll never agree with the way that you live
I threw that word love around too often
But you taught me that love isn’t that important after all
I’d easily trade it just for friendship and trust
We missed out on that part which was mostly you’re fault
I wonder if my name is in one of those little black books
Or if you imagine me paused somewhere
Waiting for the day you decide to push play again
The day you decide to care
I don’t regret a moment
Every tear drop made me who I am
Every lesson learned, every screaming match
I’m better off in the end
Wouldn’t it be funny if you ended up married
3 kids and a minivan
I just had that funny picture in my head I thought I’d throw in
Of you grocery shopping with a wedding band
I think we both knew we weren’t meant to be together
Our relationship was my favorite past time
Between school and work and whatever else
When I needed to forget it all, you’d come to my mind
I don’t need to escape anymore now
I don’t need a “with benefits” friends
I’m happy now; guess I just needed a little closure
So don’t worry, I’ll never bother you again
For John, and yea I know this one sucks... |
