Counting My Tears

Would you still have done it?
If you could feel the pain that you caused?
Would you still have stabbed me in the back?

You broke my heart, the two of you.
I thought we'd be together forever-
best friends, through and through.

You took my sun away that day.
Left me in the thunder and rain.
Left me here to count my tears.
Trying to forget all those years.

Remembering the secrets we shared.
You made it seem like you really cared.
Singing along to the radio.
Talking about our favorite shows.

It hurts me so much inside.
And I try to scrape together what's left of my pride.
Looking at pictures of us three.
Faded, broken memories.

All the sleepovers, boys, and lies.
We made it through them, strengthening our ties.
Sure we fought some childish fights,
but we'd get over it in single nights.

You were my world.
My everything.
I felt so secure I could just dance and sing.
But you snatched that away.
My only strength.

You tore me down and left me to cry.
You made me want to curl up and die.
My tears collect in the palm of my hand.
This is emotional pain I can not stand.

At least tell me what it was I did,
to make you toss me away like a used napkin.
Friend's aren't plastic toys.
You can't throw them away when you get bored.

So now I sit here, counting my tears.
Trying to forget all those years.
You took my sun away that day.
Left me in the thunder and rain.
