All I am to him is forgotten,
Once upon a time I was a beautiful girl to him.
But that seemed like forever ago.
My heart is broken,
I could collapse at any moment.
Nothing can bring him back,
that was then but this is now.

Wow. I really loved this poem. It was short, yet so expressive. I loved it.
