A throbbing pain I cannot see,
hidden inside the hole in my chest.
It isn't lust, or love, or sincerity,
the invisible dagger I feel is confusion.
You weren't there when I needed you,
yet you reappeared when I didn't.
You act as if everything is the same.
It isn't.
You moved on, past me,
into where you were meant to go.
And here I am, exactly where you left me,
Waiting. Hoping. Praying? Drowning.
I don't understand what we were to each other,
and you don't either. Didn't.
But I was there when you needed me,
and I was there when you didn't.
Do you remember, the day at your home?
Do you remember, we were all alone?
Do you remember, he had hurt you?
Do you remember, how I saved you?
You probably don't. Why should you?
You've moved on from what we never had.
Maybe I wanted something,
but you will never know.
I could never open up to you,
like you could to me.
You were unwrapped,
I was sealed.
Is that why you left me
cold and alone, empty?
I've stopped beating, pulsing.
It's for you, don't you see?
It's always been for you.
You said you wanted my heart.
And now you have it,
but at what cost?
