CURSED

Things aren’t the same
You feel it too
There’s been a change 
A change in you.

You come home late
Sit in your car
Talk on the phone
From where you are.

I see you there 
I raise the shade
You smile and laugh
I casually wave. 

Your patience wains
You get annoyed
There’s a divide
Can’t fill the void.

I watch you text
She’s into you
I can’t compete 
What can I do?

Impatient tone
Not interested
In such a rush
To forget us. 

Can’t go on
The way we are
If you want out
This will be hard.

Pack your bags
An even split
Just don’t forget
You wanted this.

I’m crying now
Could be much worse
Guess I’ve been played
Yes, I’ve been cursed.
