Happy for you

Happy for you

A Poem by Johanna
"

what do you think?

"

You promised to keep all your promises

and it's been a long time since you managed that

You promised to keep fighting for this

and it´s been a long since you took the words back


To hear you voice again was like a glimpse into the past

There's nothing here now that reminds me of you

and I think it´s alright now that we didn´t last

but I still don't like the thought of someone new


You talked about everything you had on your mind

Like you did when I loved you a lifetime ago

So familiar, so safe, yet so different this time

I´ve become a person that you no longer know


and I guess you stopped trying to spare my feelings

After all you let go, our lines no longer cross

I don´t want you anymore but it still stings

When you reach out like this so I remember the loss


There are are things now that I cannot say

It doesn't matter cause in the silence all of us hears

It was so strange to hear your voice today

To think I slept beside you for two years


I´m happy you called, that you haven´t forgotten

But the conversation still made me sad

I can hear in your voice that you're happy again

and she makes it less special the things that we had


You promised to keep all your promises

and it´s been a long time since you managed to

Maybe you shouldn´t promise her so you don´t go amiss

and I´ll try to be happy for you
