pulling my heart
strings
loving the way you talked
to me
the way we played
but
it wasn't enough for you
knowing
that in reality we
can never be
can never
feel each other's being
but
it didn't matter to you
that you made
me care
you made our friendship real
knowing that
you were going to cut me off
because
you weren't comfortable with
our fantasy
even though I was
even though I thought you
were
pulling my heart strings
harder
and
harder
until it pops
and
I am no more...
