I hate watching you
being eaten up
by your past
I hate that you remind me
it was my fault
me first
I hate watching your heart
being ripped out
constantly
I hate that I can't help you
when all I want to do
is save you
From yourself
from her
from me
I hate that hurting her
takes precedent
hurting me
I hate that I broke you
that I can't pick up
the pieces
I hate that you resent me
you regret me
and us
I hate looking back in retrospect
framing all of my regrets
it was so easy

I hate watching you
being eaten up
by your past
I hate that you remind me
it was my fault
me first
I hate watching your heart
being ripped out
constantly
I hate that I can't help you
when all I want to do
is save you
From yourself
from her
from me
I hate that hurting her
takes precedent
hurting me
I hate that I broke you
that I can't pick up
the pieces
I hate that you resent me
you regret me
and us
I hate looking back in retrospect
framing all of my regrets
it was so easy
