I look like the girl you left behind so many years ago
the girl who looked you in the eye and begged you not leave me behind.
There was nothing good going to happen to me here but, without you my chances just got so much smaller.
Than like it was yesterday you walked into my life-like not a day had passed since you had left me here.
No letters or phone calls telling me how you were doing just nothing like I didn’t matter and all the promises you made you left behind as you drove away in you big shiny blue truck.
You want to talk now but, I found it hard to say anything nice and polite to you right now as the anger of the past come bubbling back up to the surface again.
Oh how I tried to forget you at first and how it didn’t work but after getting pretty busy with the life I built it was so much easier to forget you and how it all ended for us.

May I simply say what a relief to find a person that really understands
what they are discussing online. You definitely understand
how to bring a problem to light and make it important.
More people have to look at this and understand this side of your story.
I was surprised you are not more popular because you certainly possess the gift.
Aww, thank you so much!
