Why us?
Too many distances between us
And I'm not sure what you mean when you say
'We need to take a break'
When what you really mean is 'I can't be seen with you anymore.
It ruins my image-You don't deserve me'
How can someone so strong-willed and Intelligent
Break down as soon as the opportunity for "better" arises?
'We can still be friends' won't cover or kiss the
Bruises left on your face when your father came home
Drunk and Baked.
It won't cover for the cloak of make-up and attitude that has become your
Heroin.
It can't turn a blind eye to the
Rejection after
Rejection after
Rejection you've received from both unfair sexes.
I used to find it funny when you said you like your depression
But
You broke me
You broke me when asking for a break
and when you went more overboard with those who cared for you less
you ended up being the only one falling off of the ship.
I wish I could tell you what took me so long to
Work up the courage
(Or Balls, as you'd have put it) to say
But
I too, have shrouded myself, giving very little breathing room for my emotions as I
Strangled them from existence.
I used to look upon you and be awestruck at what you
Eventually became.
But the past is the past
And I seem to like it here.
