It was my mistake

Trying to keep you close when

You wanted to leave
tryhard Feb 25
opened my heart once
after keeping everything in
years and years
filled to the brim
and now i'm spilled, entirely
maybe nobody
can be fully prepared
when the cracks in my heart
can no longer bear
all of its weight
the dam finally breaks
and i am the flood that drowns them
i am spilled, entirely
you see
victims of a flood
have the choice to leave
and i will be left here, still
caught in all the debris
spilled, entirely

Before you leave me

Please take all the memories

Enclosed in my heart

I'll have nothing if I lose her
If I stay I'll lose myself
So I'm forced to ask myself
What is the better future?

You said that you would never
fall for a guy like me
not with my background
not at my age.

You said that you were intrigued
by the things I've seen and done
the places I've been
and the women I've known.

You said that I was unstable
and I couldn't be trusted
but you liked my words
and I might be Prince Charming

You said that you could never
fall for someone with my track record
and soft words and midnight promises
don't hold your attention

You said that you'd love me forever
and you wanted to be my play thing
spend our days and nights
with soft words and late night promises

You said that it would be best
if we didn't talk anymore
and I would understand why.

I love you,
Ask me to stay and I will.
Tell me you love me
And I will drop everything
And stay.

you think
one day my memories
will fade away
from your life,
like i did

what a dream you have

you forget one thing
it was not my choice
to leave you
it was your impulsiveness
who drift us apart

I'm so sick of people
pretending they want to
stay in my life
when they really don't.

So if you don't want to
treat me well,
then you can just leave
—because I'd much rather have
a few true friends
than a bunch of fake ones.

Stop leaving hints.
I get them;
I just don't reply anymore.

I guess it's because you claim everything
in that last message you sent
was a lie.

If that's true,
it means you won't always
be there if I need you,
and that I was never as important to you
as you said I was.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, please
stop leaving the little hints.
Show me that you've moved on.
Prove to me that I never cross your mind
anymore,
that you're completely over me.

Just get out of my life.
