I’ve decided I need to stop.
I need to stop asking you things.
I shouldn’t rely on you having my back
and I’m not deciding this for you but for our sake.

I need to stop expecting you’ll be here when I’m sad,
I need to stop.
I need to stop telling you what’s bothering me,
I need to stop asking for love,
attention or just a conversation.
I need to stop demanding you to love me.
I need to stop expecting something.

I need to stop because
I shouldn’t give myself too high hopes
because
I shouldn’t ask you things you can’t give
because
I shouldn’t demand love
you are not willing to give anymore
because
I know you can’t give me what I need.
