THEY AREN'T MINE

When did the transfer happen
I recorded to keep you abreast
I wanted your moments in order
So that I could finally rest

   ~in love~

I can see that they lack chronology
My purpose is null and void
A timeline is essential
To show all the great times, we've enjoyed

  ~in growth~

My memories are not as you remember
So I seem to be unnecessary, at best
I no longer fit in the flow
Where you choose to live and rest

....out.....oUT.....OUT, I SAY!!!

I shall not lend a tear to entitlement
I'm a barren woman still
Our years together, a fantasy
I'm finally awake to what is real

Stupid love has cost me everything
Yet I have no reward to share
LOVE envelops me
Though I am no longer there

....I've gone to sleep....so tired of being brave
