Mad

We'd always been so close

Together through so much

So I cried while you packed

You said you'd be in touch

 

I believed what you told me

As we had never been apart

But on the day that you left

I just knew deep in my heart

 

Things had changed for us

It would never be the same

You left me so far behind

And even forgot my name

 

The ties that would bind us

Are broken now for good

There is no turning back

No, not even if we could

 

You have a wonderful life

With things you'd never had

I to,  should be moving on

But I'm still so f_____g mad

the date

 

i painted my nails

both fingers and toes

plucked my eyebrows

practiced my pose

my make up perfect

no hair out of place

i hope i am pretty

if he see's my face

my favorite dress

and this jewelry too

a squirt of perfume

i am ready for you

the candles are lit

the music will play

i wrote him a note

i chose it this way

the wine is lovely

pills cover my bed

so mister coroner

pronounce me dead
