When you were near

 

This is a poem of betrayal I think it’s one of my most concise from this 2025 bunch . I hope you don’t relate to this poem but if you do please let me know❤️
Writing makes pain go away and I found that it’s ok to share these poems!

When you were near

All of our lives
I loved you
I had no idea
You never liked me
You always hated me and I never knew
Then, one day tragic circumstances uncovered your secret
We were forced to go our separate ways
I guess you were relieved
I was completely destroyed
Now, as the distance between us grows, my heart celebrates a new brightness
I don’t miss you
And, I no longer sleep with a knife under my pillow
As I once did, long ago
When you were near.
