Paper Hearts

i don’t write ballads or odes much as i would want to

but this one is for all those individuals dat it never worked out with

now, i know what you’re thinking but

i won’t be insulting you, i don’t need to stoop to that level anymore

i won’t be insulting you, there’s no need for me to do that

i won’t be insulting you, i insulted enough people already

said i won’t be insulting you,

i don’t need to stoop to that level anymore

you see, here’s how i feel

i really believed that we would last for eternity

nothing would split us apart,

it would take more than the

elements to break our promises

one day came around and

we suddenly said our goodbyes

it happened so quickly, this wasn’t what i was expecting

never wanted you to leave

never wanted you to move on

never wanted you to shed a tear

never wanted you to feel guilty

my heart was aching

couldn’t handle this stress, so i melted down

attitude done increased, each day that went by

felt like a needle puncturing my skin

i left that behind me, slander is now finished

i left that behind me, cleaning up those sayings i said in 2017

they weren’t nice things from insults to thoughts of murder

i left that behind me, i was quite angered

it could come back to haunt me,

backlash will ensue

willing to take the fall for it now though

because i’m not that individual anymore

i see things much more clearly now,

possibly you leaving was for a reason

it taught me a lesson, made me sharper in my processing

it taught me a lesson, kept me humble amid all the success

it taught me a lesson, never take things for granted

however i still feel alone

and i think about you a whole lot now
