He loves me
But he’s not in love with me
And it’s breaking my heart
But how can I explain?

I don’t want to be a princess.
I prefer to be a wall
or a shoulder
that some one can lean on
I don’t want to be spoiled
I want to
fight
Get dirt on my clothes
Clean them
search more
fail more
know more
see everything
Try everything
I want to share the road
With some one
Running not carried
I want to look behind
And see MY footprints.

Sometimes
I light a small candle
Thinking that you might notice me
Maybe you’ll remember
I’m here
Somewhere
Alone
In the dark
But instead
You come
And Pour gasoline
On me
You use my candle
To set me on fire
And watch me
Burning
Alone
In the dark

You
Is the answer of everything
And that terrifies me sometimes
The fact that you
Are everything now.

With you
I was a human glass
Half full
Half empty
Half of perfections
And another of flaws
You used to always dip your fingers
In my full, watery, perfect half
And play
Spilling it here and there
Till I had nothing but a very little muddy water in the bottom
You decided to water your plants by
And put the empty glass next to many others.

I just want my skin to feel like mine again
