Happy?

I had so much going on in my life

         and that hasn't changed after you left
                    
                   scars on my heart and in my head

        and although i kind of wish I saw that before the email

     i still have a chance to apologize

          not to you, but to last year 

for all the BS I tried to get myself into

    because all the flags were painted lime, so that means you were fine, right

  not quite

      so i bleached my eyes white

   you brainwashed me, and i was dirty

       so i rewashed it

rewatched your videos for the last time

    deleted them

       defeated the demon in me that still wanted to be inside you

    hoping that i'll forget your name,

        because by the time i face my future
      i'll know there are so many people with your name
and i played with them all the same way you wished you could

   but youre the only one with that name 
                                           it's fine, i dont care
       you wouldn't know if i'd remember because if I were you right now, i'd feel like that monarch butterfly i saw on the sidewalk

      baking in the sunlight
          unable to fly

                 doomed to disappear

   i wish i could take a picture so i could show you


      oh well,

                     maybe it was meant to be forgotten.  

        oh well, maybe it wasn't meant to be

just like you werent meant to be loved like she loved me.

   and i kissed her 

and it reminded me how it could have been you

          it's a damn good thing i'll never be good enough for you


right?
