I smiled so you wouldn’t see my pain,
I walked away so you wouldn’t feel the same.

Some wounds never heal…
They just hide behind a broken smile.
I cared… you didn’t.
I waited… you didn’t.
I broke… and you never noticed.
You left… but the memories stayed,
And they hurt more than your goodbye.
My heart still whispers your name,
Even when my mind says forget.
I wish I could unread the chapters
Where you taught me how to break.
You became a memory…
But I’m still stuck in the moment.
Tears fall for a reason,
But mine fall for you.
