Learning My Z's and Q's

A Poem by AmeliaGerhardt

There was a piece of me that knew
you were never the one my heart longed for

The same piece that begged for him to come back

So when you left, 
it was not you that I mourned

It wasn't you I cried for, and 
it wasn't you who made me want to 
stay in bed for days on end

It was the pain I held onto for so long

The pain that I had tried to cover
by filling my mind with you instead

It was never about you

It was- and always will be- about him
