Quitting You

a one-sided break up nonet

By Savannah K. WilsonPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

So as my heart breaks, at least you smile

Held by another's arms, not mine

A love that could never be

All I have left are tears

So you will have joy

And through my tears

I smile, but

Must quit

You

    Oof - this was pretty raw. Totally empathise with this. Breaking up with someone is the worst. Wishing you all the best.
