FINALITY
I wish you would stop these
mindless games
Drawing me in only to push me
away
So many chances given
Thrown back in my face
Time and time again
I believed in you when others
didn’t
I confided in you
I had hopes
That you were still the person
you used to be
Only to experience the painful
sting of betrayal
And for what?
Why do I even fucking care?
Your greed and apathy sicken
my soul
As the words spill from my mind
I realize
I’m done with this bullshit
This act
The false pretenses that comprise
my day
As I try to be the better person
And pretend I care
About you
And your well-being
When
All I really wish
Is slowly burning in my thoughts
Yet never
Spoken
