heartless

heartless

A Poem by Lizzie Madloch

I didn’t write about us breaking up yet

and I write about everything.

Sorry.

It was Sept 9th.

And i’m not a good quirky misunderstood heroine

with a cup of tea and a wronged pen.

I’m the broken heart emoji on your phone,

I saw that earlier.

I am not a bad guy

but I’m listening to Kanye and not crying my eyes out.

Sorry.

It was poetic in a sense,

A scene worthy of imagery.

You, me, pickup truck- middle seat up.

I’ve never seen a guy cry before.

I felt bad

that i didn’t feel bad.

Sorry.

You don’t feel real and that scares me.

It’s like the last 7 months didn’t happen.

Where do feelings go to die?

I slept with someone else 4 hours later.

Sorry.

But i don’t owe you anything.

I have a heart but it must be buried under my calculus homework.
