It still bothers me
More than it should
That I wasn’t worth the time
To deal with directly
I thought the world of her
Would’ve given anything
And the reward I got
For all my caring
Was a cold shoulder
Solid stone silence
She went through the motions
To make me feel wanted
Then turned around
And walked away
Without a word
Without a sound
How someone can
Just give up completely
So coolly and quietly
I’ll never know
But I do know my worth
And she owed me more
Than a lack of goodbye
