Final
Poem 47: You Used To Be Mine
I think I'm falling for you,
I'm going crazy over you.
You used to tell me all these,
the thing is, you made me believe.
I fell for you again although I have learned to quit you before.
You opened my heart, you easily became my weakness.
You had me running in circles, longing for more.
I can't get you out of my mind, you were the cause of my sleeplessness.
I was falling deeper in the abyss you made.
Can't hardly breathe, I need you always with me.
I became attached, perhaps a little bit too much.
You became my only vice, you sent me into a frenzy.
Half of the things I'm saying right now,
they don't do justice for what you're doing to me.
I can't escape, nor do I even want to.
You had me wishing for an eternity with you.
Five days of wonder, forever sad.
You lost your conscience when you broke my heart.
You easily forgot how to fall,
seems like you didn't think I was worth it at all.
Now you have someone new,
are you on the rebound or just a fool?
Were you really in love or were you just covering up?
The thing is I can't get over my broken heart.
I loved you much more than she every could.
I saw through your weaknesses and loved you more.
I missed you the moment you stopped thinking of me.
I can't rearrange any of my thoughts when you're not around.
I love you, I love you, I don't know what else to say.
You took me for granted yet I can't let go.
You broke my heart again and again effortlessly.
You left me with all the little pieces, mercilessly.
You gave me good dreams when you told me you loved me.
How can I get over when my heart won't stop wishing?
There's no other replacement, you had me trapped.
How am I supposed to function when I'm such a mess?
You had me crying over love songs,
each line stabbed so painfully.
I can't stop listening, I can't stop the tears.
Where are you? My heart won't stop breaking.
Do you see what you did to me?
You broke my heart for the second time.
You made it worse, I can't hardly recover.
The damage you did can't be fixed no more.
I just want to quit you so badly.
Can you get your clutches off my heart?
You turned my whole world upside down,
now who's going to help me set it back up?
I'm down to begging, my dignity is losing.
You didn't need to replace me so easily.
You gave me no reasons for tearing me apart.
How am I supposed to live with such a broken heart?
I'm afraid, just so afraid.
I'm terrified, I can't move.
I'm stuck, I'm frozen in this pain.
I'm scared I won't be able to get over this.
No one heals the pain better than the one who inflicted it.
I never believed this 'til I gave up on finding the cure.
It didn't take me so long to see you're the solution,
the most complicated problem when the solution is so impossible.
I know I won't have your affections anymore.
You may think I'm losing it so badly.
I need you to know my smiles are fake,
because my real ones you took away.
I love you. I miss you. I need you.
I hate you for being so important.
After all I've been through, I still believe.
Mend my heart back, please mend it back.
You owe me so much tears.
You're in debt with all my sleepless nights.
You owe me a new heart,
seeing as how you took everything with you.
I just want to quit you, my only exception.
