The Tears I Cry

The tears I cry over you are temporary.

In the morning, my pillowcase will be dry.
Tears of pain that I know all too well.

I’ve been disappointed many times.

That won’t stop me from believing in others.

It only takes one person who is right for me.

Who will love me and care.

You think I’m too emotional.

I think you’re too toxic.

You think I’m too negative.

I think you’re too insensitive.

Now I know how little I matter to you.

Now I know that it’s time to move on.

Your loss will be for you to regret.

You said what you said.

You did what you did.

You are who you are.

I can do better.
