Gone
by
Laramie Lee Roecker
I feel sick.
I was told it would never happen again,
But it has.
You said you'd never hurt me,
But you have.
My scars have been cut open.
What little I had left
Is now bleeding away.
Soon I'll be gone,
And everything you knew about me
Will just be a memory
Soon to be forgotten.
But it won't matter...
Because I never mattered.
Not to you--not to anyone.
'I love you'
Wasn't just three little words to me.
It was my life, and you...
My everything.
But now both my life and my everything...
Are gone...
Along with me....
