Your Loss

Don't tell me to just suck it up and take it like a man.
You always seem to forget that I'm a woman.
I don't know how to react to this.
Sometimes, I just feel pissed.

Friends won't always be there with reminders.
"Don't forget to watch your words."
They always tell you that.
But you always forget to speak with tact.

I'm not one to love the way you lie.
The truth sometimes isn't worth while.
Keep your words and leave me be.
I'll be on the other side of the coast's sea.

Here I am now, finally at peace.
No more worrying about you or the lease.
Moments will fade and hugs will be missed.
Only your loss will continue to exist.
