Now

Now

A Poem by ErinGreenway

Now when people say my name 
I can still hear your taunting voice echo in my head
From that heart wrenching night

Now when I close my eyes
My thoughts wander off
And your face pops up
The face I once called home

Now I know I would have never been enough
Nothing compared to the other girls
Not nearly pretty or smart enough

Now you're like a knife to my heart
It hurts like nothing I've ever felt before
Can barely stand to hold it together

Now I try to hold back the memories
Of you by my side
Holding my hand tight
With your comforting voice in my ear

Now I wish you could know how I feel
Feel the stabbing and ripping of my heart
Tiny pieces fluttering to the ground
Try to tape them together without prevail

Now I know you don't even care
No idea what you've done to me
Since you've gone and turned your back 

Now I know I couldn't have been prepared
For the sudden change in scenery
That was to come around the bend
