Musings for my Muse

Broken promises should cost something

Was it easy to forget me?

To disregard the laughter

To ignore the heat?

Was it a simple thing

to pretend we never happened?

I never thought you were so cold

Every day I poured my heart out to you

willingly spilled it into your open hands

and like a magician you've made it disappear

I wish you could show me how

How to feel like none of it mattered

Like I'm not going crazy with missing you

Show me how to erase the hope from my heart

Show me how to not care

Like your todays and tomorrows have no place in my life

Show me how to get over you

quickly and easily

without the years between

Show me how to forget you

as easily as you've forgotten me

heartbreak
