I gave up on you.
So that you come after me.
I gave up on you.
So that you come after me.
Every time you told me a lie, I believed you.
Every single time you lied to me, you looked straight into my eyes.
*
With every lie, you exist less.
I don’t need a man to change me.
I need a man to be a man and change my life.
And you’re not the man.
The more I try not to let it show, the more it hurts.
And the more I fake a smile, the more you think I’m happy.
There we were, sitting next to each other.
Broken by the same old story.
*
Our gazes crossed, we faked a smile.
I was wrong to call the birds stupid.
Even them, they stay together while going away.
Turns out, you were much more stupid than a bird.
You lost me.
You always disagreed to agree with me.
Each time, you regretted it.
Still, no white flag.
Your eyes were open.
I didn’t see it.
But I just felt it.
