I loved you fully, heart and soul,
But you never felt it, never made me whole.
The ache was sharp, a constant throb,
A wound that never learned to stop.

I gave you pieces of who I am,
Hoping you’d see me, understand.
But you never saw the love I gave,
And slowly, I learned how to be brave.

I thank you for the memories, the light,
For teaching me how to say goodbye right.
The pain still lingers, a quiet crack,
A fracture that doesn’t come back.

It hurts sometimes, deep in my chest,
But now I breathe, I’ve learned to rest.
I’ve learned to ignore what still remains,
Like a scar that no longer brings pain.
