Silly Me

Sat, 07/22/2017 - 22:44 -- Neftee

I cupped you in my hands and i said you couldn't leave.

How silly of me.

You burrowed your way through my ring finger

and fought your way free.

 

I saw a picture of me and you today.

and my smile looked so strange.

You drove me insane.

so much so that i couldn't even smile right.

 

I remember how i needed you.

and i think that you needed me.

co-dependent

We loved each other so forcibly.

 

I remember you would play my emotions,

my feelings and my heart.

But my jealousy is what doomed us from the start

I drove a wedge between us.

 

I remember how broken your heart looked,

when i asked if you still loved me.

you said "we even have rings"

and i think that you cried real tears

 

silly me.

 

I never want to see you again.

not your face, not your body.

But i wish you well.

now please.

do me this last favor darling.

stay on your side of hell.
