It still hurts like yesterday

You told me to meet you at the restaurant

I went happily, thinking you would propose

But you told me those awful words.

“It’s over,” you said to me.

You discarded me like a piece of paper

You said it in public

I went home feeling heartbroken

I cried all night like a baby

I woke up the next day and saw your post

You were cheating on me all along

I took a bottle of sleeping pills

I drank one, then another and another

Before I knew it, the whole bottle was gone

I woke up to beeping machines at the hospital

It still hurts me more than it does you.
