an exclamation
you claim your love is so grand
but it hurts the most
you yearn for grip
tightest on me for control
scared to be alone
above all others
their mistakes are worse than yours
so you tell yourself
you can fool me once
maybe a few thousand times
but here’s where I part
you can keep my love
for at one point, it was real
but you can’t keep me
hostage in my mind
pleasing one who doesn’t care
nothing is enough
you pretend to care
take everything I give you
but count all I can’t
I’m not what you want
at least you can admit that
although, not to me
please just let me go
losing all my energy
left nearly empty
