What Did You Want Me To Say? Poem by William Mowell

Why is it so hard, believe me I lied
After you left, I sat down and cried
What did you want me to tell you
It's not so easy getting through

Did you think I wouldn't hurt
I lay down in a bed of dirt
Cry for you one last time
Are you anything but mine

I guess your everyone's girl
As I see him give you a twirl
Are you gonna sleep with him
What did you say, his name is Tim

Why should I give damn
You don't even know who I am
I'm just some guy you once knew
Did I even matter to you

Was I another notch on your belt
Did you really care about how I felt?
I fell in love, but you were just having fun
Now I'm holding the end of this gun

I'm not going to take my life
Even though I've been cut with your knife
Its to signal the end of our love
Like when they release a dove

But thats to signal the start
I guess I'm not that smart
Its time to cry this last tear
and release all my fears
Time to send our love soaring
As the cloudy sky starts pouring
