I think the saddest part is that a part of me still wants to forgive you A part of me is still carrying a torch for the man you once were The man you could be again But you and I both know how you feel about change You and I both know how you feel about me You say that you love me The words drip from your mouth like honey Sticky sweet and sickening This is not love And it hasn't been for quite some time This is obsession, this is infatuation, this is lust You don't miss me, you miss how willing I was to take off my clothes To open myself up to you, bare my body and soul to you Primal and disgusting and everything you wanted You miss my passivity My fear of the word "no" My fear of disappointing you You tell me I've changed You don't recognize that you are the one who changed me You set this house of my heart ablaze and I have risen from the ashes I am no longer what I once was, not anymore
