| The Tell Off |
| Now I know you are probably all assuming this is toward someone but it really isn't. I started writing it thinking that would be the middle of a poem and then it just kept going and going and going. There are a couple lines in there I really like. Written in Math on Setember 27th, 2004. |
| When something takes everything And leaves me with nothing Will you stay by my side Or will you run and hide Cuz I need a girl to ride with me To share in the good times with And take comfort in during dark times I used to think you were the one The one I needed to make like fun To be there for me when the going got rough But now I see the painful truth You were just there for the calm And out of town you went As you saw the approaching storm You waited till you brought out the best in me To show off the worst of you Can�t you live without the attention Or is it your biggest vice in life Does it keep you going to know To know that I can�t stop thinking of you Try as I might, I just can�t quit But know that I�m learning to deal with it For once, I�m not thinking of how I miss you Or thinking about where you are and with whom Now I�m thinkin� how it could have happened How you got to me so quick and so strong And now my thoughts turn to how much I hate you For being who I wanted Until you became who I hated Soon I�ll look back and laugh For I�ll be standing stronger And you�ll be alone thinking of me Wondering why you let go of me And why I haven�t come back Cuz I won�t be coming back I won�t even glance in your direction This isn�t a joke, I�m telling you off Now if you wouldn�t mind I have to go My heart hurts from all this pain you�ve inflicted And the only bandage I know lies in the comfort of my bed So bye for now and forever and ever And don�t hesitate walking out that door For I may reconsider taking you back once more |
