I never ceased to care about anyone the way I did with you.
Feelings evaporated like dew in the afternoon sun,
until nothing is left but dry grass, slightly cool to the touch.
My feelings towards you started out like a fire,
the hottest flame I've ever felt.
But all the wash dashed, suddenly,
as if a bucket of water was poured over the steaming coals from the flame.
I see you pining over me.
I've never had anyone pine over me before.
I realize that you loved me more than I loved you.
And I wish I could give you some sort of closure.
I wish your feelings would evaporate into the sun.
Just like mine did.
I hope you can move on because you deserve better.
Someone who fits you like a puzzle piece.
Not me, a square peg, trying to fit with you, a round hole.
Poem about the end of my last relationship.
