Okay maybe I am an asshole after all
But we human and sometimes we fall
I don’t recall how many times I broke your heart
But every time I think of it,
I wish I could drink poison, sprawl and die
My acts used to make me stand tall I cannot lie.
But with you, conscience always kicked in.
But fuck feeling guilty; won’t you answer these questions for me?
Where were you when I had misery strangling me?
Where were you when I was screaming “Please come save me!”?
Did you ever think of dropping everything and attend to me?
Don’t tell me I am making everything about me
Who spent sleepless nights, pillows soaked in tears? Me!
When my back was against the wall, did you ever think you could at least come and help me fight the demons that had cornered me?
It has always been you
From the moment I laid eyes on you
You became more than just a girlfriend
You became a sister I never had
When I didn’t feel you close to me I felt empty
Like a huge part of me had left me
Thus I began acting abruptly
Truth be told I never meant to tear you apart
I thought I was filling in the space you left unattended-temporarily
That was some absurdity…
