You can’t be serious

You are sorry?

That’s it?

After all you put me through?

Now you want me back?

Hehe, you can’t be serious

You didn’t mean to; so you say

You, who left and never turned back,

You that left me to the whims of destiny

Now you want be by your side?

Hehe you can’t be serious

It’s been over five years

What you said still etched in my mind

“John it’s over!”

Now you can’t live without me?

Hehe you can’t be serious

Each day was like the sun would never set

Each night was like the sun would never rise

I wept, slept and woke up to weep again

Now you want in?

Hehe you can’t be serious

I loved you

My world revolved around

But that apparently wasn’t enough

You disappeared at the first opportunity

Now, I am your reason for living?

Hehe you can’t be serious

I won’t have jumped in front of a train for you

But I would have had qualms taking the death pill for you

But you never lost sleep over it

Now you miss me?

Hehe you can’t be serious

All I wanted was to leave the moment

Look into your blue beautiful eyes

And read love in them

But you wanted me to move on just as you did

Now you treasure me?

Hehe you can’t be serious

I didn’t die and so wont you

You might cry; but you definitely won’t weep

You might feel sad; but you won’t   greave for sure

And though I may be wrong about that as well

I know for sure that if I survived you will to

I aint mad

It doesn’t hurt any more

If you tolerated me, she celebrates me

If you loved me, she is in love with me

It’s too late my love

Hehe move on.
