we share this space we share this union but i cannot be further away from you. your faults make me cringe your dependancy on praise exhausts me. the narcissist is in you feeds the bitterness in me. i had hoped that you would come to take me away and now i am sailing this boat alone. i hate it when people ask how i am. cause i cant tell them, the infinity of depair you bring upon me. they all bask in your glorious smile, and your casual demeanor. but they never see the insecurity the neediness the demands the dissapointments the sulking the depression the anger the violence the fear i feel around you. so i fight against a ghost, lash out at the wind. and i grow ever more lonely. cause you are too stuck in your own pain, to see me slipping away.
