You won't listen

I know I need to let you go
I see you everywhere
I hear you all the time
Your voice is in my head
But this time
Its not the words
I want to hear

You made sure your words
Cut to the bone
To make me know
How deep your resentment runs
Your point was made
More than once, in fact
So thank you for that

My scars once healed
Are laid wide open again
The knife you handed me
And never looked back
I've become so numb
To the shredding of my skin

I'm no saint, not even close
I have my faults
I have accepted my blame
But you stepped on my heart
Ripped me apart
Magnified my mistakes
And wanted me to beg
My words mean nothing
Written or spoken
So what's the point?

You refuse to listen
To sound of my leaving
You don't get to cry
For the loss of us
When You won't turn around
To see the end of us
