Thought Was Me

Too many tears I’ve shed
And not a single thing has changed
Tears make you weak he said,
His smile twisted and deranged
I tried to be strong and wear the mask
To still my beating heart with iron fists

And yet here again I've failed at my task
In tears again for all I’ve missed
You’ve left me in disgust
And destroyed all we could have been
An ideal now turned to wretched dust
Disappointed with the shreds of who you thought you’d seen
The girl that I could never be
The girl that for a while, I thought was me

I wrote this a while ago, and it's interesting to look back to. I'm still sad, still hurting, still lonely, and I want someone, but I'm beginning to realize that someone isn't him. 

I am not that girl 'I never could be' but maybe that isn't a bad thing. Perhaps I don't even want to be that girl. 
I am me, and maybe that's good.
