I don’t want to be the one to say goodbye
I thought we were a sure thing
Went grocery shopping earlier
Ali Gatie’s “Moonlight” is playing loud on the speakers
I remembered how you loved that song and
The good morning text you sent me, almost lyrical
I was a star in your heart
The moon and sun can’t compare

But everything went downhill from there
Our connection lost its’ spark
Our conversations reduced to daily pleasantries

And then it came
The final blow

You said I feel myself too special
But in reality, really
I am nothing but a speck of dust

Maybe you said that out of spite
Just to hurt me
But trust me, darling
I don’t need no validation
And, oh!
Who are you to award me a designation?

You said: “Forget me if you don’t enjoy my little vibe”
And I did
Now that I’m alone by myself
All that remains is
Good vibes
