we are over.
not in the way you say we are.
i will not wait like a dog
for you to open the door.
for too long you've left me in the rain
pawing at the door and whimpering
while you took care of that stray
i get she needs you more than i do,
but you can't just leave me out here.
you chose me.
so it's time to start acting like it.
but we are over.
the night you locked the door on me,
all i wanted was the key.
i thought if i said "i love you"
in just the right way
you'd let me in
but then i realized
i am not yours
i refuse to fall into this trap
like the stray you love oh so much
i was whole before you
i will learn to become whole without you.
