You break my heart everyday
My feelings, I fear; gone away
As you lay there unappreciative
Your demeanor sad; last kiss
Days counted spent in the abyss
Dying emotions in which I remiss
Months will be long before it ends
This facade I cannot pretend
As your soul fades; faked smile
For every ill-traveled; fated mile
You've not broken me I'm just done
Count the days before im on the run
Never will I live this lie once more
As I head for the hills and out the door
I'm so tired but I keep my head up
As my life will go on hopefully without you
As you have made my heart bleed true
Now as you pass time in a stupor
Giving into this depression again
Know my body yearns for more
With every story there comes an end
This tragedy we call our romance
Will conclude with my own happiness
As we share our last forlorn dance
One in which you don't participate
Like all that affection unreciprocated
Before I slam this book shut and such
Know that I'm a hero for standing alone
Without you to know and unfaithfully trust
It'll be finally one happy family home
One which has me and no one else
To share in all my pain that you caused
With all your inactivity; it will be your loss
As even the time I took to write this
Was more than you ever put in our relationship
