Why didn’t you tell me?
You kept leading me on.
All this time I had hope.
Yet in one minute it’s gone.

I’m so broken on the inside.
Can’t stop this random crying.
I’ve never hurt so much before.
Feels like inside I am dying.

This happiness is now faked.
Usually my smiles are just forced.
The inner light has dwindled.
Empty where life once coursed.
