Dwelling on The Past

I found some old messages,
I swore I had erased,
But as I read them,
I remember the heartache.

My chest feels so tight,
As I choke back tears,
Why do I feel like this,
When it's been so many years?

The memories of you and I,
Come flooding back to me,
All the promises of a future,
That just wasn't meant to be.

I know that you've moved on,
And that you're happier now,
I wish I could say the same,
But I only feel hurt and let down.

I would've bet anything,
That we were going to last,
But now I'm the lonely one,
Who's dwelling on the past.
