I didn’t ask you to love me
This was your choice to stay.
I just asked you to be there,
With me, for me,
Want to be alone with me not without me.
Being alone was horrible
But being alone with you is even worse
I’d never felt more invisible to someone.
Feel the questioning of an old friend staring at my face
But never understanding if they were seeing me inside there.

I carved a hole in my chest to let you bleed out of it,
I never asked you to love me.
But I was hoping you’d stick around long enough to care back.
But your silent flee was louder than any of the door slams from our fights.
You’re not the man for me I’m not the woman for you.
That doesn’t stop me from oozing raspberry pain
Out of the little pink cuts you left on the shards of my already shattered heart.
It was a broken heart before you,
So when I let you in I warned you, you could get hurt.
I thought this would hurt less to pull you out
To tear you out from something that had been previously destroyed.
