She doesn't want to hide behind That screen of lies. She doesn't want to have to this time. She doesn't want to change your mind; You're gone, she's fine. She doesn't want to go back this time. And, no, She doesn't want to hold your hand You're cold, ******* She doesn't want to say this again. She doesn't want to accept she's ****** Will she if she can? She doesn't want to lose it over a man. She's got pride It's hard to hide But you're wise Know her disguise Changed her mind Called her "mine" Now she'll cry Because of lies But you're blind You don't mind But, no, She doesn't want to hide behind That screen of lies. She doesn't want to have to this time. And She doesn't want to hold your hand. You're cold, ******* She doesn't want to go back this time.

This Time
sitting with my legs crossed Van Gogh starry night pants on (just the star-part so really it could be anybody's starry night) the silver nail polish on my nails is almost gone I peeled most of it off there are just a few round specks in the middle of each nail (like my waves of bravery) weak and futile the black wooden boards beneath my feet my calloused fingers hurt I braided my hair --twice-- tonight and didn't write my homework like I should've instead I was driving 10 miles under the speed limit realizing this was caused by the lack of aliveness eating away at my enamel I would've done it this time

This time, I am not so eager to please you. I am angry with you. You might be oblivious, but I am furious with you. You hurt me. Don't let it get to your head, No, you didn't shatter my heart Or any crap like that Don't overestimate Your importance in my life But it did hurt me And the main reasons I kind of want to stab you (yes, I'm violent. get over it) Is because You wasted MONTHS of my time Then you go and text me Yesterday Well, first of all I had my traditional heart attack When your name lit up my screen But after the initial terror settled down I informed all my friends you had texted me Their responses involved a lot of offers To ****** you if you didn't leave me alone In very creative ways But I decided to find out what you wanted You "just figured it had been a while since we talked." Ha. I saw your exgirlfriend the other day The one you dropped me for In a split second Her face was attached to some other guy's face And that guy was not you So it didn't work out First of all HA. Secondly, that just means now You might just be going for your other back up option Well, I am no Plan B I do not like being a back up option I know you are charming I will admit that, yes. You are very handsome I really could never do any better than you If we are thinking by society's standards But I don't want you. Charm doesn't work on the jaded Charm doesn't work on the hurt Charm doesn't work on the broken And most of all Charm REALLY doesn't work on the homicidal I am all four So don't you dare underestimate my ability To keep myself From ever falling for you again I will be happy however To talk to you To try to rekindle whatever we had before you left me for her But I am so used to playing with fire at this point Our spark Will only catch you You can't burn ashes And all that's really left of me in some ways is ashes so good luck with that It will just burn you and I will watch you burn I don't actually believe in romantic love anymore thanks for that. I am not one to **** off If you value your life Or if you like to keep your limbs actually attached to your body I will talk to you But I will never again Confuse your flirting With truth Because you Are a pathetic liar And I will never fall For your lies again No I know I am not pretty No I know that I am not “lovely” As you used to tell me Far too many times For it to be true This time Is different Time to prove That I really can be cold Time to prove That I CAN be strong And not swayed by words I will never ever Give you another chance And I will not let any chance I get Slip by To hurt you The way you hurt me I will happily waste your time like you wasted mine I hope I get the chance to drown you in all the pathetic tears I cried for you and if my friends ever get a hold of you they will probably Voldemortify you you will miss your nose when they detach it from your face ...you should probably hide because an old flame's wrath is nothing compared to an old flame's best friends' wraths This time will be different I am not desperate I no longer am amazed by you I no longer see you as this unattainable daydream come true I now see you for what you are a player and a liar who can't make up his own freaking mind so this time the table will be turned you want to play again? Alright, player I look forward to winning this time and then you will be sorry you ever crossed me this time.
