You said don't leave me tonight And I did. Not because it was late and your liver was filled with lust with a gitty mind. It was because you broke the last string. The last string that held this harp together so that we can get through these rough times in harmony. You broke it. And you broke all the other strings with the countless mistakes you made trying and trying to make me love you the way you love me. I don't. Love you that is. I did in the beginning- it was new. Like the smell of a new car, or the feeling of the new jacket you just bought at American Eagle. But soon the smell and the feeling fades. It was like stepping into new territory with welcoming arms and walking down that path to a crowd of endless smiles.
But then the storms settled in. The clouds wiping out the life in our eyes. The rain poured down on our hearts, melting away all the beautiful memories. The lightening bruising my tethering muscles. The thunder rumbled our solid ground and cracks started forming around our feet. Separating us into different worlds. To different storms. To different life. But you didn't want that. You fought against fate without a care. For what the world wanted or worse. For what I wanted. You kept leaping over these intended cracks, finding the wrong way back to me. You let the storm rage on not understanding why it keeps raining. But you didn't realize that the control was in your hands.
I was the figure in the night that guided you, but only for a little while. I wasn't meant to stay. I didn't want to stay. So you let the control run to your finger tips, letting the lightening be your strike to get me back. You let the rain settle over me like an endless water fall, drowning me to no end. You let the clouds linger around me, my greens eyes running paler by the day. And you asked me "Why are you so miserable?" I said I don't know. *But the truth is my dear, it was you and your endless need to control my movements and be the tar within my lungs drowning me in the storm.
