I wrote this a few weeks ago, and in the margins of the paper I have some notes to it, one of the notes states "No rhythm, no meter, no organization, terrible" so apparently when I wrote it I didn't like it, I'm rereading as I'm typing, so my thoughts may have changed(but probably not)

Not Long

Jealous of everyone I talk to,
Angry that I'm not depressed,
Hatred towards the fact I'm moving on.
Seems someone had a change of heart,
Not long ago you wanted nothing to do with me,
Oh, how the tables have been turned.

Drop your woes on me,
And expect me to care,
Tell me your problems,
To gain a little sympathy,
Tell me I don't understand,
Try to tell me I just don't know,
Don't know what you're going through,
Not long ago I was destroyed,
And look what's happening now.

Jealousy seeps through your words,
At the mention of another girl,
Can't be happy without me,
And it was your idea to change,
To stop being lovers, to stop loving.
And be nothing more than friends.

Ask me another loaded question,
So I can pull the answer when it's against your head,
Blame me for your heartache,
When fault is sitting on your shoulders,
This shouldn't be so funny to me,
But your emotion has changed,
And it's plain for all to see,
Not long and you'll be the one crawling back,
This time, I'll be the one holding the dagger.

Never thought, that the victim,
Would be healed faster than the assailant,
Never thought the wounded,
Would wake from this nightmare.
Not long ago, I was walking misery,
And it's easy to see, you took that yoke from me.

I never thought I'd revel,
In someone else's pain,
Not with something as dear as this,
You heart has warmed back up to me,
All it took was for me to stop caring,
And treat you like everyone else.
And I was your knight in shining armor,
Treated you like the goddess I thought you were,
And you said that it could never be enough.
Not long ago did I think,
That you and I were meant to be,
Not long and I won't care what you see.
