I watched him
Watching her
and he knew it.
So he never stopped
craving the attention
that he already had.
Taking it in like the last breath of fresh air.
Walking away from all his problems.
Pushing me away.
Swimming threw your never ending sorrow.
Not a moment to myself
all for you
and know one else.

Someone who has been in your life for so long. They can hurt you but no matter what you do to save yourself you can never forget what they did to you.
