They said you moved on
Like yesterday’s dawn
But there’s more debris mined
From the litter of my mind
You just need to pay one debt
Since you opted to press reset
I still want to know
What it took to desecrate
The moments we treasured of late
How you snuffed out the life
Of our dreams without a strife
Where you tried to bury
Everything we so ever cherished
And just before you grind
Away the secrets we left behind
Tell me how you moved on
I thought you were genius
Never saw you were vicious

I love this poem, you can’t hold on to someone who doesn’t want to be there.
