The sadness of it all is your benightedness.
Making others feel uncomfortable for the sake of saying or doing something inappropriate. Whether it be reaching for my crotch in public or speaking to guy's girlfriends about masturbation as a form of entertainment, it becomes shallow, ignominious and afflictive.
Wanting me to save you from being a third wheel, getting upset when I tell you I actually have plans to see friends for dinner. Heaven forbid I do something that doesn't revolve around you. I have never met or given my heart to someone so completely selfish. It's over now, my heart in pieces scattered around, strung together in a mobile hanging above your devilish crib for the child you are to play with at your will. It's going though. I'm taking back my luster broken heart. You won't see it, as I am invisible to you. You won't know it because you don't even know me.
I'll admit, I wanted it to work more than I should have. My imagination won over my common sense. Beyond the surrealism there is a harsh reality. Either you know this already and that is why it has ended in the now or you have yet to step out and take a step back and see that I'm still breaking by loving you. Then and currently still loving you but no longer in love with you and that's the difference. To be "in love" - would be to feel it, wholly. I never did. It never made me feel whole because I never got enough back to fill what I was giving. A few moments, a few words, smiles, games, joys, nights, that never grew.
Perhaps if I could speak what I write instead it would make a difference, I never had the chance.
You wouldn't have listened either, given a chance.
To feel so conclusively sad - how I don't wish this on anyone, but I know I'm not the only one. Parting from the sadness, I grow. Not knowing just yet how. I need to love harder than I've been hurt. I need to love not you. Then shall my heart earn its luster back, its glow.
"When we no longer need but choose which comes from a place of strength not weakness... so solidify yourself"

I'm sad because I'm telling my heart what to do.
It shouldn't be that way, instead:
Can I lay by your side, next to you
And make sure you're alright?
I'll take care of you
I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight
I'm reaching out to you
Can you hear my call (who's to say you won't hear me?)
This hurt that I've been through
I'm missing you, missing you like crazy
The you my heart still imagines.
