You have this tendency to make me sad
But my mother thinks we should fall in love
Because she doesn't like the girl I do
And nice white boys are the way to go
But you have this tendency to make me sad
And I don't want someone
Who won't listen or answer when I ask
If they are okay or how their day went
I want someone who talks to me
And makes me feel like I matter
Someone who makes me feel like
More than just a good way of distraction

I want someone who doesn't threaten suicide
When I don't want to answer a question
Because I'm too tired to make coherent sentences
But no, the answer to every question is always
A diversion and when told to answer
The answer is always "Or else?"
I've never had anything over you
But you've got a suicidal tendency over me
And you know I hate it when you do that

I want someone who doesn't fit the
Middle school definition of an
Emotionally abusive relationship.
