Someone New

by Jessica Hoppus - Gemini

I have a secret to tell you
Something you have no idea about
Telling you this is something
I can no longer go without

This is something I should have said
At a time very long ago
Something I need to tell you
Something you need to know

So please listen very clearly
You need to hear what I have to say
For one minute stop thinking about your house and car
Don't think about our plans for Saturday

Because now our plans are broken
To see you again I have no need
I don't want to continue to be with you
Because your heart is consumed by greed

You never really loved me
You never really cared
About those times we spent together
All those memories that we shared

I found someone that really loves me
Someone I cannon go without
Someone who is not like you
He is what my life is about

So please leave me now
And don't ever return
I am trying to move forward
You are no longer my concern

Now I see you leaving
Walking right out of my life
My future plans are changing
I'll never again want to be your future wife

As you close the door behind you
Tears spring forth from my eyes
But I know things are better like this
Never again do I want to hear your lies

There is a hole in my heart
This is a piece of me that you still hold
But I know I'll never get it back
No matter what I was told

Now that you are gone
I can live my life for me
Never again will your lies
Ever be told to me

Reason for writing:

    After my boyfriend and I split up I wanted to stay friends but that didn't end up working out so far.  This poem was about the guy I met after he and I broke up.  That guy that I met is the most amazing guy and we've already planned on being together for the rest of our lives.  But I still feel like I should tell my ex that I'm with somebody, I still want him as a friend, I miss him.
