You are like the empty Tin Man.

But you are full of echoing lies.

You have no heart within.

And you I now despise.

I thought you were my friend.

but,  to your continued silence.

I did get wise.

You started out so different.

but your impertinence comes with no surprise.

You are not the first to just cut off contact.

But from you,  I expected an explanation as to why.

You know me so well. 

But yet you leave me here alone while I cry.

Your pain hurts more than all the others.

I sit alone,  and wonder why.

Why you would do this.

To someone like I.
