The Girl Who Won't Remember My Name

This is some shit I wrote a while back. It was a work of fiction, just a couple of ideas but I decided to sort of flesh it out.

Her words hit me, like a jagged spear of ice,
I didn't register it at first, but then their implications hit me.
I however took it in my stride,
It was expected for quite some time.

I took my sorrow and buried it deep,
Yeah it killed me, but I would do anything to keep her happy.
But what shocked me was her incredible candor,
When she told me she didn't love me anymore.

How then am I supposed to smile and be nice,
When my heart is so badly hurt inside?
All those words count for nothing,
And the times were a lie.

Now when my knees give way and my spirit gets low,
There is nobody to catch me but the floor.
But I shall bear all this and walk a thousand miles more,
For my love still stands despite her blows.

Everything I did for her will have no regrets,
I saw her smile and that was the best,
Those days gone by, now a movie set,
Every piece of which I will never forget.

And though my insides are welled with pain,
I shall always love the girl who won't remember my name.

So simply, yet, or maybe hence, so accurately described. Haven't we ALL felt that?
