Ow

Ow!
No, I'll be ok
I just forgot
forgot about the pain
of her being a person
forgot about the tears
she would eventually cry
they've always been there
behind those wide eyes
just waiting for that trigger

-----you

you did it to me
so of coarse you'd do it to her
make her fall for you

your so predictible
manipulating her
making her dependent on you

so when you'd pull that final hit
rite to her soul-er plexus
she'd fall to her knees
broken, eyeshadow smeared
calling me at midnight
to mend her wounds
pleading for a way
to escape the pain

I open my mouth to help her
to tell her how to move on
but my jaw hangs open
silent and still

cause I've studied for this question
first hand for so long
yet still
I have no answer
don't know what type of band aid to use

I can only listen to your tears
be your rock
and silently weep myself
