Finally,
Not all of a sudden but gradually
It's been proven systematically
Everybody WILL leave me
The proof?
Well,
That's easy
A quick peek and you'll see
Everyone has left me
The problem is me,
Obviously,
But here's what gets me,
When I want to leave me
Suddenly
That's another something wrong with me
You don't want me
I don't want me
How do those conclusions land differently?
Identical mindsets but yours are worthy
Of walking away unapologetically
Levitating an old issue like I've lost gravity
But still wound up in the devils proximity
Clearly
I'm the only one not allowed to not want me
Love it's self is a fallacy
Someone needs to explain that duality

I'm finding it impossible to shake this mindset
