I promised I'd want you always

You promised you'd stay

But you broke your promise

You left me anyway.

You left me in the forest

Broken into pieces

You said you didn't want me

I hoped you were being facetious.

But despite what you said

You abandoned me here

Now I'm left alone

Where you were nowhere near.

I'm forced to live my life without you

Joys quickly became sorrows

And I dreaded everyday

Yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

I tried to find ways to go on

On my own

But I failed every time

As if my strength was on a loan.

Didn't you love me?

I was sure you did

But when you said those words

Everything else seemed like a fib.

You were gone forever

To never be seen again

I was forbidden to remember

Terrified to forget.
