Jake's Poem

For a while,

I thought you were the one

But you made it clear

That it's all been said and done

Some days, I wonder

If you meant everything you said

And sometimes, I wonder

If I'm just better off dead

Love may be gentle,

Love may be kind,

But I've come to realize

You're no longer on my mind

So take your empty promises

And all your filthy lies

Because while you're still stuck here,

I'll be ready to fly

Soaring above you,

Across the seven seas,

You'll finally realize

There's a lot more to me

After everything we've been through,

After everything you've done,

Maybe you'll see

Exactly where I'm coming from
