SOMETIMES
sometimes i just wish i could be mad at you like everyone else…
i wish i had more negative connotations,
stronger anger inside,
just more to make me not love the person that’s gone.
6 months later and still the questions come…
what happened?
y’all were so perfect for each other.
i guess not perfect enough in your mind.
and sometimes i think,
maybe i made it up.
maybe it was a dream,
or rose colored glasses,
i really don’t know.
i wish i did,
but you won’t tell me.
you just keep lying so what’s the point?
when you are so scared,
scared to hurt me if i’m not hurting you.
you won’t say the dark truth,
even if i dig it out of you.
i just don’t know how we can push through when our time restarts.
VERY SOON
i know that soon i’ll be able to tell you what made me fall in love with you
i’ll be there to show you what i saw
i get to finally explain to you what we are
i know you still love me
i know your masks are on and your walls are up
everytime i see you, my heart stops
everything that reminds me of you makes tears fall even though i’m not sad
i get why you left
it’s overwhelming, i know i feel it now
i didn’t lose myself in you
i was emerged in you to learn you
i will soon get to finish learning you as you relearn me
i’ve grown and i’ve realized
i just hope you did too
because very soon you will come
but you may not like my decision if you are not up for the test
i hope i haunt everyone who did me wrong like lucy gray haunted coriolanus. you will remember me and all the good i brought to your life then you will remember that you lost me.
