look, and not feel the pain.
The hurt that came from your rejection.
I now know it was all in vain.
*****
I can stay and linger now
spend time and watch and look,
The tears no longer flow now
they evaporated with all that you took.
*****
I can sit with you all now
and share your laughs and joys.
And I can stand in your presence
and smile as I join in all the noise.
*****
You see, you taught me all you knew
And then you gave me wings,
Humiliatingly, sending me away
but now it is me that sings.
*****
I took away your light and
stole the rainbows from your heart,
though it never gave me pleasure
I never wanted us to part.
*****
I can go back and visit now
Take a bow and do a twirl
But you can’t even bear to stay
You are such a silly girl!
*****
All that I have accomplished
could have been yours to share
but you threw it all away
and now I have stripped you bare!
*****
I can go back and visit now
I can look and not feel the pain,
There is nothing left to cry for
except for you, who have no name.
