Smile on my Face
February 28, 2019
Another year has passed
My first year without you
I remember that night
When I finally knew
The relationship was over.
You finally gave up
I stood watching the time go by
Watching the ball drop
You left me alone
To find someone else
Is there something wrong?
Did I do this to myself?
I thought you were my friend
Clearly, we were not
You threw me away
And left me to rot
The clock struck twelve
I cried myself to sleep
I wanted to be held
But you were nowhere to be found
I sucked it up
Tried to not look out of place
But really, I was dying inside
Even with a smile on my face
