It’s been a month since you left me,
And I won’t lie, it hurts
Honestly, I had no Idea your absence
Will haunt me so much.
Oh dear, but let me tell you,
I still don’t regret my decision
It’s just the fact that
I thought our love was pure precision.
Do you remember our midnight walks?
Parallel to the sea breeze
I remember the words you said
Came out of your mouth with such ease.
And no doubt I believed them
You were such a pretty liar
You were all a girl could ask for
Until you set her world on fire.
All my life you made me
Think small of myself
You took my confidence away
framing the perfect girl your mind dwelled.
But I cannot disagree
It was me, the real fool
Worshipped every word you said
It was my life, but I let you rule.
I don’t remember what I saw in you
You were barely half the man as me
Every day I needed your reassurance
How foolish can one be!
But oh, my dear
Not only was I wrong
But now I realize
I was the goddess all along.
Your last words, still
Echo in my head
I recall, “you need me”
Is exactly what you said.
But my prince of the shallow seas
You think too high of yourself
Maybe that’s the reason
You put me on the bottom shelf.
And of course, I couldn’t take it
what else could I have done?
even your mother despised you
but honey, weren’t you the only son?
So today, my long-lost lover
let me say a thing or two
I wanted you in my life
but I promise I didn’t need you!
