you said you loved me then you left you said you loved me then you left but your love was based on a condition that lacked appreciation, but rather possession and when it occurred to you that i could not be plucked from the ground and hung upside down to dry from your ceiling you said you loved me and then you left your desire for my life outweighed your desire for my heart i let you see into my core, underneath my skin and my bones to my undertones and i loved you more you said you loved me, but when I decided that I was my own, you lifted your eyes above me, and decided your love was meant to leave me alone you were my best friend you said you loved me and then you left
