Making Sense of it All (Part One)
By Kenneth R. Cabrieto
          I've grown tired of loving you from my rear-view mirror
          And I think I'm through with waiting for that day to come.

          I know that for the longest time
          I wanted nothing more than for you to see and feel my suffering.
          I thought you didn't care after the fact
          But now I know you had to have.
          You were never thatkind of person.
          What stupid thing made me think you were in the end?
          I now know how you felt back then.
          This is why I can't wish any bad on you -
          That is, if I wanted to.
          You don't deserve any of that.
          I was mad when you told me you didn't love me anymore
          But I can't be, not anymore.
          A lot of time has passed and I have to say
          I'm at least happy that you told me how you felt.
          You didn't try to come up with some big conspiracy theory.
          You didn't leave me hanging
          (Well, you kinda did but let's not get into that).
          Sometimes we think certain questions go unanswered
          But the fact that the question remains unanswered is the answer.
          Usually we don't accept this because it's not the answer we want.
          I didn't accept this because I didn't want to accept the fact that is was over.
