here's what bothers me...
you defined me
you acted as if I'm a term
a term on a paper
something you could
just define and throw away
I obsessed for days on your words
I looked back at my behavior
studying every motion
feeling inadequate and worthless
I kept fighting the urge
to drown myself
with one different movement
you buried me again
put me behind all these
past regrets
and typical responses
you defined me
you don't believe in me
hell you don't even trust me
you fit me in this box
now I can't get out
you come
you smile
you kiss me
you say it's nothing
but to me it's everything
your weakness and moments
played me out to be
just another brand
you laid with me
and I felt like I couldn't breathe
your arm around me
felt like chains
your ideals
don't stake a claim
your the wrong one
and I'm done.
