The End

Like a movie

In his cold words, you see the end
but you tell yourself it’s not true,
because you believe in hope.
Is that hope or despair?

You sense a gnawing pain in your chest.
Yet you force a smile to hide the truth.
If you love a little harder,
if you have to hurt a little,
he would love you.

Once again, you stay.
He left without looking back
while you’re paralyzed in the overflowing silence.

Once again, I tell you,
he’s not worth your tears.
