I never thought he’d make me cry.
But here I am
In the backyard of my parents’ house
Under the shade tree that protects me
From the summer sun.
Tears streaming down my face,
Tears that he caused.
Looking at the text that says
“She seems like a really nice girl”
Feels like someone took a ball bat to my stomach.
I can’t breathe.
Telling him that I wanted to be the person
He told everything to
Seems like a big mistake now.
That was something I didn’t want to know.
Because here I am,
Brokenhearted,
And he’s oblivious,
Because I responded
“She is really nice”,
With a smiley face
Added for good measure.
