I'm done, I'm finished, I'm over it I am I truly am I have to be, because you're done too, because we're through, because you truly are, so I say I'm done, if my friends ask I say I'm done, "oh yeah we're not a thing anymore.. Yeah I broke up with her " but we all know it's a lie, but I'm done, I definitely am done, I definitely don't think about you before I go to bed, I definitely don't think about you on my way home, no I'm definitely done yes that's what I have to say, I'm done, just as a lion is done eating meat, just as the devil is done playing with my mind, just as a book is done with words or a sky is done with raining or the sun done with shining yes I'm ******* done! I'm done looking for a straw in a stack of needles, I'm done looking for what I read in a romantic novel, I'm done doing everything based on the movies I've seen, I'm done using the words I learned from my favorite video games, I'm done assuming my princess in distress is waiting for me for I am no knight in shining armor, no sir, I am done falling for your tricks, I'm done playing your games, I played them before and now the devil holds my soul, it was stupid to bet on my soul for whatever I thought I had but my was it worth it, for it taught me the lesson I needed, a lesson I should've learned a long time ago, a lesson learned too late, and so, before I lose what little I have left I bow to your generosity, I thank you for your passion, I admire you for your mercy, for I wouldn't have shown you the same, I wouldn't have taken the time to teach you how you weren't my last jigsaw piece, I wouldn't have taken the time to show you where you went wrong and I definitely wouldn't have taken the time to write my goodbye letter, no I wouldn't, I would've said I'm done, done with being in love with you, I would've said I'm done caring about you, done with all of you, but you beat me to it, you pulled the trigger first, you decided for me, you chose my future and you were already done, so I find myself, on a bus seat, on my way home, thinking about you and I then repeat the lie I have to believe, I'm done
