Pointless to Miss

There is no point to miss you
I'm not sure why I do
I've got nothing to offer
That you'd ever want or care to have
Because you had it already
You saw all there is to see
It didn't appeal enough for you to keep it
You've been better since you shook it off
I don't possess qualities you really crave
And my life experience is too different from yours
You want full understanding at core
Most isn't what you're looking for
And now that you've likely found it
Your life has been turned around and
I have no ground to stand on
So why do I find myself here sometimes?
It doesn't matter what I miss
There is no changing this
Can't make you like what you don't
I can't compete so I won't
I know now what you want
And it's very little of what I've got
What I had was enough you thought
You were settling, I was not
If I had some sort of chance
Maybe all of this would make sense
But I don't even have to think
I just let that ship sink
Sometimes pieces resurface
When all I want to do is burn this
Saddest mistake that I've made yet
I hate the way that you left
Sure I could offer you everything
But it's not enough to meet your needs
Missing you is pointless
Your heart is done with me
And maybe I could leave the pieces
If I knew we tried to save them first
Instead you said it wasn't worth attempting
Not sure I've heard anything worse
I've been victim to a lot of yelling
I've even used some empty words
But to be so completely devalued
Has left scars of indescribable hurt
If you could easily let it parish
Then it's something you didn't cherish
I'm not sure how else to see it
You decided that we'd be defeated
If you could leave without knowing how the fight would have gone
Then obviously your feelings for me were not that strong
The levels we were on were not the same
You wanted to play a different game
That concept only leaves me depressed
This is starting to turn to regrets
I do make a point to miss you less
But still here lives this hole in my chest

Knowing what I meant to you
If anything at all...
Is the piece that was always missing
And it's still making its killing
You've made your point
And it was less
Than the one I tried to make
The one I really believed we could create
So I don't understand the point
My heart is trying to instill
When it misses you during random nights
It's never going to get its fill
