I held on - Long after you had let me go
I carried -
the weight of a love that was supposed to be shared equally
I pulled through -
When most nights you weren't even aware of what i was going through
I spent hours -
waiting on messages that most nights.. Never even came
I walked -
miles to just embrace your presence
I wiped tears -
off your face, even when you were at fault
I had days -
where I was the only one fighting for us
I had weeks -
where i wondered if you'll ever need me again
There were months -
that passed by with no word or call from you
It took years -
for me to move on and find peace after you
& it only took an epiphany to realise that it was never me, it was you who lacked love in places only you could have loved you
