Realizing

Mon, 01/21/2019 - 23:27 -- Alex09

You painted me out to be desperate 

But theres a difference between desperation and being hopeful 

I waited for you because I was hopeful not desperate 

 

I was hopeful for us but I didn’t need us to workout

You excited me but I never relied on you 

I dreamed about you but you weren’t my everything 

You were important to me but you weren’t the sun of my universe 

You weren’t the best thing that happened to me but you were up there

 

I took my time with you which is something I don’t usually do

But you went worth my time

You made me miserable and lonely

Which maybe I am

But thats definitely not because of you 

You can’t take credit for that too
