And I am being replaced.
Like the pieces of a machine,
I am no longer functional, useful for her.
The emotional despair is a fire,
Burning in my gut,
The heat rises to my neck.
I am being cut out and away,
She views me as a cancer to her happiness.
She knew the emotional destruction of her actions,
But refuses me honesty,
And insight.
I am left looking at what we have built,
Like a statue I observe the calculated ruin of our life together.
I am replaced by a usurper,
A hapless fool who will not last.
And I will have to continue to pretend
To put on the mask, to be the persona.
And like all my relationships I am discarded,
A waste of time for Love,
Or happiness,
Or hope.
She is the caravan,
And I am the dust,
I am nothing,
I am the dust.

She has found another
And I am being replaced.
Like the pieces of a machine,
I am no longer functional, useful for her.
The emotional despair is a fire,
Burning in my gut,
The heat rises to my neck.
I am being cut out and away,
She views me as a cancer to her happiness.
She knew the emotional destruction of her actions,
But refuses me honesty,
And insight.
I am left looking at what we have built,
Like a statue I observe the calculated ruin of our life together.
I am replaced by a usurper,
A hapless fool who will not last.
And I will have to continue to pretend
To put on the mask, to be the persona.
And like all my relationships I am discarded,
A waste of time for Love,
Or happiness,
Or hope.
She is the caravan,
And I am the dust,
I am nothing,
I am the dust.
