You Lost

My dear ex, you think you’ve won, but really you just lost  
You didn’t realize all the consequences of this, all the cost.  
I tried to change your mind, but in the end you didn’t listen to me  
Now because of your foolish choices, alone is all you’ll ever be.  
At first you made me cut, starve, burn, and want to die  
But you can’t hurt me anymore, and it’s time to say a final goodbye.  
We had so many dreams to fulfull, you and me  
But now all you’re going to be is a sad memory.  
I’m sad, broken, and torn, but it’s even worse for you  
Because without me in your life you don’t know what to do.  
You put on a smile and act happy to cover up your pain  
When inside your mistake is making you go insane.  
You’re starting to realize how alone you feel without me by your side  
You’re starting to feel the emptiness, like part of you has died.  
It’s been a month now, and still you haven’t said a word  
But I don’t know if you realized something, if you heard.  
That it’s too late to try again now  
The curtain has closed, I’ve taken my final bow.  
I no longer want to listen to anything you have to say  
Maybe if you hadn’t made me wait a month and a day.  
For while I still love you, I can’t let you do this to me anymore  
I have to shut you out of my life and close that door.  
Because of you I cannot love the same  
I keep reliving the pain, wondering if i ever won't be a pawn in this sick game.  
You’ll never know how bad you hurt me, how I wanted to just die  
And I’ll never know what caused you to do this to me, and why.  
We could’ve had something special, we could’ve made it last  
But now I guess you’re just another thing in the past.  
I hope one day you see what you did to me, every tear, every scar  
I hope you feel regret every time you look up and see our special star.  
One thing I know for sure is that you are blind, and can’t see the cost  
And that when it comes down to it, in the end, I won...and you lost.
