I'm only forcing myself to move now,

To move, to write.

Surely you have realized by now,

That I am no longer who I was.

Surely you will realize that my question,

My request,

Will only be asked of you twice.

Twice and nothing more.

For you see,

My dear,

I no longer wish to relive this.

The pain,

The heartache.

Your rejection as it repeats itself, year after year.

In twisted intervals as you toy with my hopes,

And my fears.

This piece of writing is just for you.

You who cares not to remember,

The sacrifices I made to be at your side.

You who does not recall,

The bravery it took to watch the ground rise and fall.

To feel the metal bend, and shake.

To watch the clouds turn to wisps and break.

And to you, I say goodnight.

From this, for now.

Because now I know,

Now I can see,

That it is not a plane that separates you from me.

It is not a mountain, nor a sea.

There is no lover, no family,

It is only you.

Only you, that holds you back.

I was finally able to open my eyes and see,

That to you I mean near nothing at all.

I have finally come to realize the truth of the matter.

It is you, who does not want to see me.

But that's alright, it's fine.

Because you have forgotten the laughter we shared,

You have forgotten the gifts I once gave.

You have forgotten the words I once spoke,

And I have forgotten the dreams of you,

And the empty promises I once held with hope.
