My love for him was like Swiss cheese,
too many holes and not the best thing for me.
There was too much distance between us.
Too many things remained a mystery,
I thought he knew me.
I thought he held the key,
to my dreams, but now I know there
are bigger, better things.
My love for him aged, as he changed
The love for him went away,
As my heart went cold; too much pain in its hold.
I love him no more,
For I made it a chore
To be dragged around,
by a ball and chain.
These things I wish I could change,
Regret clouds my mind.
I never should have let him in.
You loved me, but now I don’t love you like I used to.
I’m here to take back what’s mine,
But I can’t fix the damage you’ve done, or
The hurt you left behind.
