my almost valentine

Healed my broken heart just to break it again;

Trust you don’t wanna hurt me

But you’ve just gone & torn my heart to shreds.

Your lack of malice is coated in love,

Like you’re doing what’s best for me;

Trying to convince me I’m better off,

When the only one you’re trying to convince is yourself.

Deleting calls just to have your last where I can see it,

Not texting others just so your thread is at the top;

Like I can lie to myself I’m still the one you call late at night,

Like I’m still yours, And you’re still mine;

My almost Valentine.

You were my almost everything;

My almost love, almost final fall;

The one with whom I might’ve followed to the last,

If you’d only asked.
