“I will never understand you.  When will I stop trying? Cause it’s just not how I planned to spend my time till dying” -311-Champagne

I am not what you think
I am what you crave.
I do not like you any more
I am not a dream.
I walked to your house
You slammed the door.

Greetings no longer necessary
I stare, longing for more.
Doors slamming, people yelling
Is this what you want?
No more niceness left to share
You chose that road.

Sure, I paid my money like a good girl
Thinking I’d get more than this.
Rejected, tossed aside,
I know how you feel.
My feelings aren’t the same,
Doesn’t mean that you’re to blame.

If you want this,
You can have it.
I don’t care.
I refuse to let you taint this moment
And tamper with my head.
You started this course, now I’m going in another direction.
Don’t look to me for any answers.

Sure, I used to feel.
It was quite fun.
Now I’m out in the sun
Burning for no one.
Things could have ended differently
We both know that.
A month came and went
And you slowly passed.

So farewell to what was there
And hello to something new.
You deserve something I can’t give
And I deserve all I’m worth.
We knew this time would come
Neither wants to be the first.
You’re hanging on to something still.
Could it be my pictures?
My name?
No, I think it is a memory
Because I’m no longer around.

THANKS FOR THE RIDE
