The half -dead beauty The with holder of ashamed feelings old feelings The name doesn't live up to the inspiration it emits It's the heaven in the hell But of course I didn't appreciate it then, When I had your interest.
We'd go there when I stayed over... To the place where cowardly arguments go to instigate To the place where we would go to be alone To the place we'd go to practice our dances and songs, only to give up on them after a week.
You'd call me up and tell me to go with you to the field and of course I did. Before I found out you didn't care Before I knew about your master manipulator status I would've done anything for you Before I noticed your apathy It was supportive Before I knew I was just one of your friends I was excited.
When I moved away, you forgot about me But I remembered you, I remembered the field, I ******* remembered And when I came back, you were gone yet only streets away...
Times weren't so good after that You'd still call once a month, but I didn't answer because I refused to fall back into your well-maintained trap.
Today, I remembered the field And I took my notebook, and my Lana Del Rey, and my combat boots and sauntered down the irrefutable road of unlucky childhood memories, and I lead myself there.
When I arrived, I noticed those huge black, plastic tubes were gone Gone Just like my feelings for you And I sat, right under that same tree we sat about a year before, and I wrote this poem. That's as real as it gets, the once unappreciated, ugly field that held our bitter-sweet relationship, inspired the once unappreciated, ugly girl.
