Worth it in the End

burning heart drawing

I would have stopped the world for you.
I would have made mountains move for you.
I would have lied for you.
I would have died for you.
How could I have been so naïve to think
That you would do the same for me?
I walked through hell for you,
And you watched without closing the gap.
You would even take steps back.
I wish I would have known
That I was only a pawn in your game.
You promised me a future-
A future full of lies.
I trusted you
As you put on your disguise.
I trusted you
As you picked up your knife.
As I was bleeding out,
You watched, coldhearted.
My final thought
As my soul departed…
Was this as worth it for you
As it was for me?
