Toxic Friendship

Why would you assume? I never hinted that I liked you Sorry that I don’t care about heteronormativity I’m not scared to sit in close seats The only things about you I knew I learned because everything offended you Yeah, I know you have a large chest But I look deeper than the surface, unlike the rest I’m not saying you’re horrible Our friendship was just not endurable We shall try to repair But never like before the snare It’s just the way you were raised This sort of thing makes you dazed I’m sorry for how it was phrased But I felt depraved As you walked away After you held me for days Telling me it’d be okay I fell for the bait You never meant to manipulate But for you, I’d have died today But you can’t handle someone who stays And then out I came You were the friend I craved But eventually, you had me crazed
