It is over

 

The pain is intense, a ripping of the heart

How much more can I stand?

Is this the way it has to be?

I know it should be better

I know I am at fault

I cant live up to it

The standard is too high

Mere mortals have no hope

To attain the perfection you require

 

How do I cope, what do I do?

The time invested is so great

Do I walk away, as though it was nothing?

What do I do, I was good enough once

But now I don’t make you happy

You are angry all the time

I irritate you

I can no longer stand it

The silence is slowly killing me

 

I am drained, I am weary

The life has leached from me

I have no energy left to give to you

My reserves are gone

I need to set you free to search

So you may gain what you are looking for

I am no longer what you want

I cannot fulfil your needs

It is finally over
