Slurred Conversation
She said: "Why are you like that?"
He said: “Because I've been there and I’m done with that."
She asked: “Do you think I'm like everyone else?”
He answered “No. You just remind me of myself. "
She asked: “What do you mean I remind you of yourself?”
He replied: “It means I’m not going to waste time on you or anyone else."
So then she asked: “Do you hate you? Is that what you really mean?"
He continued: “Yes, you are worthless, therefore reminding me of me.
Don’t you get it? I can't stand you because of all the sadness your face happens to bring."
She cried: “You are a bastard with a father!
You should have never been born you should have remained an unborn offspring"
He told her: “Go away you can't change anything!"
But before she left him... streaming rum flavored tears changed everything.
He screamed: “Life------ You've left me nothing. For what more of me could you possibly be asking?
She replied “I’ve left you with another chance.
You should've lost me forever on this night.
Now seek what you look for and don’t disregard that which you can’t find.”
