Oh, God.
I dreamed of you and you promised to return.
Even through your uninterested replies, I still believed.
You had tod me you were coming back on a Tuesday.
So I waited for Tuesday.
It came and I dressed for the occasion, but it went by unnoticed.
So I dressed for Wednesday, thinking you were just late.
But Wednesday went away too.
So Thursday came and I prayed, it too bore the same outcome.
So I did the same for Friday,
because just maybe it was going to be a dramatic entrance, befitting of you.
And you know what happened?
Nothing, nothing in the slightest.
Oh, God.
When did I get to be like this,
I never cared before.
So I texted to make sure I wasn't wrong.
I wasn't, you just changed your mind.
And even to this day,
it shatters me inside.
Well, I have moved on, I think.
I will dress for me and my happiness.
I will no longer be better for you, or anyone for that matter.
So this is a thank you for showing me I'm better.
Oh, God.

In my mind I still belong to you
The faces behind the masks tell,
The biggest lies.
Living fake life's needing attention.
Always having to prove they know
Everything better than you.
When it's your time to shine they
Steal your light.
Kicking you back into the shadows.
Because know if you look better than
Them they won't like it.
Watching them sitting catching rust.
Each day goes up in a puff of smoke.
Yet I am always judged on everything.
I wrote this because sometimes it's the ones who are closer to you that do the most damage
