Don’t let me go.
Or let me slip into the back of your mind.
I memorized your face,
And your smile and your eyes.
I thought you cared enough about me,
That you would never leave.
Then one day you left,
Didn’t answer your calls
And I never saw you again.
Hurt, pain, betrayal.
I found out you had another girl in your life.
Better than me I suppose.
But don’t worry about me,
Because someday I’ll be making
Way more money than you ever could,
Singing songs about ways you broke my heart.
And the whole country will hate you that.

A poem I wrote for all the heart breakers out there--you will someday repay for it!

Have you ever confused a dream with life? Or stolen something when you have the cash? Have you ever been blue? Or thought your train moving while sitting still? Maybe I was just crazy. Maybe it was the 60's. Or maybe I was just a girl... interrupted
