"The young woman didn't blink, but the little girl cried."
So I had a young heart, and you thought you could break it. Well done. But applause should be held for now, I heal fast. For all the times I've driven home crying over you, I'll rewrite this love story with someone new. And I will forget you, I'll move on, I'll be busy and enthralled in my life. But you... will remember me. You'll think of me sometimes because I was good to you. Because even when you hurt me the most, you could not justify it, because there was no cause. Because your promises meant nothing, and you knew I knew it. Because your tough exterior is not enough to hide a soul that you try to suffocate with alcohol, partying, and reading. Because one day your heart will hurt like mine does, and you'll realize that I never wished that on you. You'll remember all of our late conversations, which lasted for hours. You'll remember all the things you said, and all the times you let me down. And you'll remember that I was stronger than you. It hurt you more to end this the way you did than it will ever hurt me, because I have the pain without the guilt.
Oh, and I threw your lighter away.
Oh, and I threw your lighter away.
