She burns pages
To feel alive
And watch her words
Dance in the flames

She clings to his jacket
Each and every night
Since he left
Hoping to catch a whiff
Of the Old Spice scent
She loved so much

She spills her heart out
In poetry and tears
Wondering why she
Still wastes them on him

She wears a mask
Full of happiness
Secretly dying a bit more inside
Since the day he walked out

She once believed in love
But that was long ago
When silver lockets and pinky promises
Meant something more
where is the time
not so long ago
when this all meant something more
to me and you
