HIM
Unavailable, cocky, distant, cold.
ME
Willing, pathetic, waiting, alone.

Please don't pretend to be someone you are not.
My knight in shining armor, HA! Do you think I forgot?
The way you gave me time only when it was convenient,
Or how you said you loved me, never quite sure if you mean it.
And when I asked for attention, what was it you said?
Oh yes, I'm too needy, you'd rather do anything instead.

Let's not pretend to be something we never were.
The good never outweighed the bad, that's for sure.
We were never great, though people thought so,
We were mere actors, quick to put on a show.
And the love, well, the love was simply a prop,
But when the lights dimmed, and the people left, the love would always stop.

I will not pretend to be someone I am not.
Though I fear I've been under you so long, that may be all I've got.
But I will do my best to no longer let you hurt me,
I will be strong when you say you need me and you're sorry.
I am not convenient, I am not your runner-up,
I am strong, smart, and beautiful, I am your biggest **** up.

Why are you so sweet?
I wish you would stop
Stop telling me you love me
Stop saying I'm perfect.

Why are you so willing?
I wish you would quit
Quit being so quick to say yes
Quit saying I'm worth it.

Why are you so devoted?
I wish you would stray
Stray to the arms of another
Stray to someone who deserves it.

Why are you so you?
I wish you could change
Change into the one I love
Change into my Mr. Perfect.

Why isn't he you?
I wish he was able
Able to be sweet, willing and devoted
Able to see that I'm worth it.

Love is for saps, suckers, and fools,
Love is pointless,
Love is the blues.

Love is cause for all the evil in the world,
Love is the gun,
Love is the girl.

Love is heartbreak and anger and fear,
Love is the pits,
Love is never clear.

Love is pain from the hottest wildest fire,
Love is burning,
Love is our strongest desire.

Love is what ails me every minute of every day,
Love is sickness,
Love is caring anyway.

Love is SO STUPID, it makes no sense,
Love is your touch,
Love is your lips.

Love is in me, though you do not care,
Love is rejection,
Love is not here.

Love is time, even when you don't have it,
Love is far-fetched,
Love is unrealistic.

Love is never real, reliable or true,
Love is someone else,
Love is not you.
