letter to an Ex.

i called you just to hear your voice,
I called just to know,
that you are fine,
there in your new life,
happy children and a loving wife,
I called to say I was pleased for you,
to let you go and start anew,
I tried to say it,
i tried to tell you,
but no words came out,
nothing there,
nothing more,
a page in history,
nothing more,
a chapter gone memories faded,
hearts go on,
heart are jaded,
I called to say things I never could,
to say them right as i wish i would,
to forgive the past,
to let it go,
nothing,
no voice,
no heart,
not even soul,
I called to tell you I was hurt so deep,
when you walked away i forgot to sleep,
tears like ascid did i weep,
while you were out playing cheap,
the nights your children called your name,
they could have never known it was in vain,
the days they waited by the door,
hopes and dream shattered on the floor,
you let us down,
you told us lies,
you were never real,
only your lies,
the woman at the bar,
my very best friend,
you ate us up and spit us out,
nothing right within our house,
I cried for weeks,
so did your son,
the girls believe you left them too,
because you could never love more than you,
our tears are dry now,
our hearts have scares,
there is nothing for you in these hearts of ours.
take your leave and come here no more,
move on without your sin,
to grow and thrive and try again.
I called to tell you I hope she knows you are a cruel man,
no heart or soul,
I called to say thank you too,
I am sure I can see other men like you,
selfish and vain,
cunning and cruel,
you taught me well,
thank you thank you.
