pushing away

pushing away what once was
for something more new
surprising, less filling.
the words you wrote
now fade into eternity,
yet, caught on this heart
holding onto what you
definitely don't want.
you've pushed me away.
your wish is fulfilled.
what remains is a shattered heart
and a place where dignity once stood.
