Letting Go
You sit there
With your crocodile tears
Hoping to get
A response from me
I sit here emotionless
As you look at me
I see no pain
I see no sorrow
I see no hurt
No love lost
You look normal
With no care for us
I get tired of
Seeing those fake tears
I walk away
And you follow
I turn back
Wondering why
But before you answer
I storm off in a rush
I toil with the idea
That maybe you actually care
But these past few months
You have shown the opposite
I sit and ponder
That maybe I'm just paranoid
But then I remember
Back to the stuff that happened
Stuff that you keep saying is nothing
Stuff that actually does matter
Yet you refuse to see
That it eats at me from the inside
Stuff that caused me
To melt down and collapse
My emotions couldn't handle
The crushing sorrow
So I stopped
I have set boundaries
Some that you might not like
But here's the thing
I'm tired of being toyed with
I'm tired of the heartache
I'm tired of being lied to
And I'm tired of being a Marionette
I'm tired of it all
And the worst part
Is that I allowed it
For far too long
So I made up my mind
I will be free
I will live my way
No matter how much you beg
Because I have always known
It was always a choice
That wouldn't end up
With me being first.
