Time takes this pain and replaces it with an anger that maims, a mood that blames you for the weird thing you do.
Never been more than friends, but I was hoping you would dump those violent cheating men.
You spent hours telling me all about their cruelty. How they make you wonder why you attract those kind of guys, the ones who lie and lay hands on you.
Meanwhile, I stop by when you call me. When I hear you cry I play the nice guy comfort and cradle the cracked heart, till you are able to walk yourself right on to the next abusive ex.
Each time I find my mind darkened by thoughts of self-hate wondering how bad I must be for you to see sociopathic sexist violent men as a better and more attractive alternative then me.
So, I try to move on until you come along, say that you miss me ask me to go to the movies, and I just jump right back in.
