I learnt that
When you lie
You show obvious telltales

I then started to notice
That you did too
I noticed that you shuffled in your seat
When you told me
that you weren't scared that one time
we sat down to watch that horror film

I noticed that you bit your lip
When I asked you
if you were okay that night you stumbled in
at 1 o'clock in the morning

I noticed that you fiddled with your fingers
When you saw that couple walking down the street
and I asked if you knew them, you shook your head
I later found out she was your ex

And I noticed that you looked down to the floor
And the corners of your mouth twitched down
When I told you I love you
And you replied with 'I love you too'

Wait don't walk away
                                        Come back around
                        One last time
                                Try to hold your ground
I don't wanna ask any more than you can offer
                    I can't take anymore anyways
                                       You're not even trying

            And I've seen you trying
         I've seen you determined
                          It lights up your eyes
Like the celestial beings binge on brilliance
      Makes your aura shine a little brighter
                                         But now You're not even trying
       Should I even be devastated ?
            Should I even feel damaged and broken ?
                         Cry you a river perhaps
         You probably wouldn't even care
It kills me to say this but
                                 I wish You were trying.
