Moving On

I know what I said

That I didn’t want any part

In what we once were

But how quickly are you moving on?

How quickly are you forgetting

That you left me here by unmoving choice?

Why do you expect me to know 

Things that I’m not told?

Why do you wait for me to ask,

When I can’t even tell you how I feel?

I want to hear you fill in the spaces

When others ask you about me 

Do you know how I’m doing? 

Do you know how hard this is for me?

But those who ask 

They don’t need to know the truth 

So I suppose it’s appropriate 

That you’re not being honest

I for one

Tell them what I do know 

That I don’t know how you are 

Because I don’t ask anymore 

Were you trying to protect me

In all the anger that you projected?

All the energy that was stirred up inside of you 

Was it to protect me?

You never told 

I never asked
