It's Over Poem by Ebubechi Ireke

Would life be better
If I didn't know you?
Would I be less hurt
If I hadn't said Hi?
Would I had escaped this argument
If I didn't chat you first?
Would I have led a quieter life than this?

It seems as though
Memories we had
Were as a night dream
Which fades and is forgotten even before the day breaks
I thought we had something beautiful
But it seems as though everything was a castle in the air

It didn't just happen
You stopped having my time
And always claimed busy
Which I supposed as a lie
Here my trust was shaken on you
And you did nothing to correct it
Making me a fool

When I called it out
You said I was nagging
Till you cheated
Making me a bigger fool
Wasn't I enough?

This thoughts floods my head
As I recall our argument
It was heated but I just wanted to talk
I wanted to know 'WHY? '
Maybe it was so much to ask of you
But I don't think so
Maybe I was being selfish but it was all for you
As a way to redeem yourself
I didn't ask for the Korean type of love
Cos maybe I didn't believe I could have it
I just wanted you to be true
I didn't ask you to take me places as I could seem as a gold digger
I just wanted to walk down the street with you
Smiling as though there wasn't any care in the world

But I guess I can't do that anymore
At least not with you
I can still have dreams
But not of you
I can still imagine
But without you
Cos you said a simple but painful word


'It's over'
