Lies & Expectations

I want,

I need.

To forget you,

Erase you from my memory...from my heart.

My expectations led me here,

You could never be what I needed.

The things that you say...that you said,

Mean nothing at this point.

Your actions speak volumes,

But it still hurts.

I try to understand,

Why not me???

What do you see in her?,

I thought you wanted better.

I struggle to escape,

This maze of emotions.

Happy to see you,

Angry that it was all a lie.

Every day is a step closer,

To forgetting...us.

I thought I could be what you needed,

Make you see the happier side.

But you want to play old games,

Replay the same broken record.

I want so much more,

And you could never, will never be...
