i didn't cry

by kelli bircket (Aries) - Not entered

i asked you why without a tear.
you said you didn't love me anymore.
   i'm glad i didn't cry.
you were sorry, you said.
you loved me once, but the feeling was gone.
you wanted to be friends.
i said, ok.
   i'm glad i didn't cry.
you slipped the ring on you finger
easier than i got it off,
even though it was big on me.
it didn't look like the same ring on your finger.
you flashed it in front of my eyes.
   but i didn't cry.
you said, bye, turned and proudly walked away.
i knew that this time it was for good.
   but no tears came.
you started dating her.  it hurt.
everytime i saw you, you were with her.
even though she does not love you like i did.
i know that you must love her very much.
and it seems you always make sure i see you together.
   but i learned not to cry.
now i am alone in my room,
thinking of all the things happening...
of your good-bye...and of you and her...
and of memories...
   and i cry over-due teardrops.
