Better Off Without Me
When I'm with one of you,
I just can't have one without the other.
I would love to laugh and have fun together.
But then I see, that maybe
You two are better off without me.
Because I hear that when I'm not there,
You agree on most things and get along.
Having fun, like as if you don't really care
About anything else.
I'm starting to feel
That maybe you secretly hate me,
And lie when you say I'm great,
And I just don't fit to your appeal and ideals.
I'm sure neither of you felt
This loneliness as long as I did.
And I usually feel envy
For friendships and siblings that I often see.
You are lucky to be together...
