Excuses
Lying to myself to make excuses for all your lies
Why do I continue to protect my pride?
Lessons learned years later that only should have took a couple of days
Why do I stand up for someone who won’t even stand for me?
Sitting and watching as my pain grow like a weed
I lied to myself to lookout for you as you looked out the window
I watched you look the other way but still hoped that you would look back
towards me knowing you were ready to leave
p.s. Even when I found out she was a ghost I still chased her…
