My vision was blurred And your voice was only a distant echo. I tried to reply, but my words were slurred So all you heard was a garbled mess. You said that I was "too difficult" As my throat clenched, holding back *****. You turned, claiming it wasn't my fault, But as I stumbled after you, I knew it was. My mind was slow, fuzzy, as I tried to recall All the times you carried me home. All the times I was too far gone to walk steadily. And I realized suddenly that I'd been a burden. That you resented me for those times I needed you. But I also remembered how hurtful you were, How you tormented me, controlled me. I cried myself to sleep all alone that night. I woke up with a headache, still sick about losing you. But I gathered myself and thought for a long while. I may have been a burden, but you were an instigator. You never gave me the love I deserved for loving you. I can let you go now, for I believe the end of us was your fault, your mistake; I was only under the influence of heartbreak.
