As For Me

Remember when I loved you

That was a joke

The good times were just bullshit 

What a waste that 

Was a time of gaslighting 

The abuse here. 

You’ve moved on

Found another

Rather to quickly

Was he just

Another of your 

Escape plans

I hold him in no contempt

No matter what he thought he knew

I wonder if you can do it again 

You’re growing older

But as for me

I’m better off

Without you

And as for me

I’m happier

Without you. 

I was naive to trust you

That you love me

Or that you proposed to me 

I lied to me

Despite all of the red flags 

I did love you 

I know now 

I’m better 

Without your lies now

So common

Habitual tales

That you do 

The roles we played cast us both

As villains although we all know 

Based on all the damage you left behind 

You’re the thief of hearts 

But as for me

I’m better off

Without you

And as for me

I’m happier

Without you. 

An epic soliloquy

In my mind

Legendary 

Or Fantasy 

Maybe fact 

Something else. 

But as for me

I’m better off

Without you

And as for me

I’m happier

Without you.
