Today's Tears

Today's tears are not for loneliness. They are for:

• The pain of being promised the world and being cast off like a tired old toy.
• The pain of seeing the love note to her.
• The pain of knowing that all those dreams I thought we would share will now be shared with someone else.
• The pain of trusting that flirting with other girls meant nothing.
• The pain of the lies.
• The pain of not being given the chance to work through our problems.
• The pain of believing he will never apologize for these things.
• The pain of the guilt for hoping he treats her the same way he treated me, and that she has enough sense to end it herself before he shatters all her dreams, too.
• The pain that I don't have the confidence, faith and trust that the next one won't do the all same things.
