Wasted

Wasted time

and wasted dreams.

My sweet breaths

have turned to steam.

When you look at her,

do you think of your deceit?

I’m tripping over my words

to make it sound alright.

You’ve given me new guilt

disguised as a new hope.

And all these crumbled dreams

have left my pillow soaked with tears.

You should feel ashamed of how you made me feel-

Like I was on cloud nine

and you dissolved all my fears.

But now I’m left alone

wondering why I let it go so far,

and why I let you waste my time

so now my dreams deferred.
