Wanted: A piece of me

I loved you
More than you could ever love me
I wanted you happy
And so I did everything in my power
Trying to turn it into reality
We are puzzle pieces
New, untouched pieces
Bound to fit in perfectly
And yet, you chose to give it up
All I can do now is pray
Pray that you find your other untouched side
That fits so tightly
You'll be glad you gave up
Am I just an statistic?
Or do I have the value I deserve?

You were my priority
But between all the gifts
You convinced me
Convinced that we would be forever
And at that exact moment
You earned a piece of me
You were no longer my priority
You had become a necessity
And before I could enjoy
You ran away
Without prior notice
Slammed the door and ran as fast as you could.
Not even returning what belonged to me
Now I was without you and a piece of me
You loved me so much
But what I love you is something you will never understand
The sunset is so pretty
And I still don't like the moon
