I'm no longer bitter, just empty to the brim

by Jolie Jordan

I was your someone
And I was my own

But now I divide up our belongings
And I leave you here alone

If I have been replaced
And your heart is closed to me

Then I will exit as you came
And leave behind the key.

My favorite part is in the title. "Empty to the brim."

I agree - great title. This moves quickly to the end, nice rhyming which seems to fit well. It feels as though much had been resolved before this was written. A clean exit.
