Everything You Dont Need

You were everything good 
Until you weren’t 
Now I’ll learn to push you as if you fill me with false excuses 
I’ll learn to hate you as you tell me all that I want to hear
Ill teach my heart not to soften as you say you’re sorry 
Not to linger on the words you said
Ill scribble all the happiness I thought I felt
And condemn you 
Forsake the lovely talks of any future 
You’ll lose touch of mornings yawning speaking to you	
To nights where I lose sleep 
Hearing your voice 
Laughing to your words 
Listening to your stories 
The happiest moments I ever spent
But how could you ever deserve this heart 
You so easily misplace
Ill push you so you’ll drown 
In a world with everything you don’t need.
