You know I never quite erased you from my mind,
I can still picture your smile with those crooked teeth I always found cute.
The way you used to talk that was so different from others that
It was like you made it up yourself on purpose but you actually didn’t,
It was just the way you talked.
You seemed to put up with me;
I never saw a falter in what I thought was your love.
You never got excited like I did about our silly anniversaries,
And I always was kinda desperate for you to like me.
In the two weeks before you broke up with me,
And it was like you’d stop feeling for me for a while
But it just hit you all at once.
Not that you really cared.
You stopped kissing me and eventually you stopped touching me.
Not even a look in the eye.
I was told three days before hand by someone else what was gonna happen.
And you showed me a message on your phone.
I almost started crying in class.
Not that you cared, but I also failed the class anyway.
But you know that didn’t hurt as much,
Not compared to when the person I loved after you,
Told me you guys were dating,
And I was happy for you both.
Even though you probably didn’t care that I did.
At least you had something in common.
But what really got me was when he said
“You know, we both admitted to each other that we’ve always liked each other.”
“Even when we were with other people.”
