I see you

Advertisements

And I hear you, but you see, I know your kind

You will take and take until there is nothing left of me.

And I won’t lose myself again for anyone.

And so I distance myself, not letting your insecurities get to me.

And sometimes I wish you would understand how things work, but you probably won’t ever, but that’s your life to live.

I won’t try to change or control you, for I know how that feels.

You will have to learn and grow on your own.

And maybe one day you will be in a better place to know there is always another way to do things.
