We drifted apart
like ripples of a pebble
you, with the victory of crushing my heart
I, with a scar and scraps to put it back together.
Content that I am not like you
I didn t turn bitter, only wiser
you did what you had to do
my silence will always be your only answer.
I ve seen the likes of you too many times before
you and your mind games didn t surprise me
I am vulnerable by choice
otherwise how would love reside in me?
