Dear Boy,

You've left behind everything

But I'm the one with nothing.

.

Maybe if I wrote our story

With the ink that I now write with,

We would be together

But who am I to write that scene?

Just a girl with no one left to please

.

Did I matter?

Did I matter to you?

I want to ask,

And I want you to say yes.

.

But it's too late now

because unlike me,

You don't live in the past

.

I don't know if it's love

It probably isn't

But just in case,

I'll say it to you now

.

In another life,

I hope there isn't a me

And there isn't a you

.

Because in my hope of there being a We,

I have created-

a piece of soul

I wish I didn't need

.

Because never again

Does my heart want to be here,

Clutching unsaid words

to a boy she almost loved.

From,

a girl
