I won’t

Advertisements

Go there as you seem to keep crossing the line.

And a part of me wants revenge, but then I realized it’s not relevant to my growth, so why fight back and fuel the fire.

I would instead walk away knowing you wanted me to fight back so you could feel better about yourself.

Because in reality, it’s always been about you and no one else, and I’m a little disappointed your that selfish, but who am I to judge.

And so I try not to, but every time I try to stay out of it, you’re pulling me back in, in hopes to make me more like you.

But I’ve been down that path before, and it always ends up with you alone with more issues than you had in the past.

And to me, that struggle isn’t worth it.
