Love Me, Leave Me
oh
i understand now
you never loved me
did you? how,
when I loved you so
your lusty comments were just that
a momentary infatuation
and now I’m cracked
i think you are too
why did you pretend nothing was wrong?
for so long
now there’s nothing
hate me, curse me
so at least I know you feel something(anything)
not this unbearable quiet
then I can be pissed
then I can cry
then I can finally move on
when will you let me free?
let me be done
don’t leave me broken
-living on my medication
blurring the time between pills-
but please release me
or I’ll break again
and again
until you finally leave
