This Is Hopeless

 

 

Right now

At the precipice of giving up
As you fall asleep on the couch
when you could be digging into my mind
or writing this with me
You choose

You chose

to be somewhere else
watching an over rated movie with your
hands down your pants

 

I've been there honey.

 

We all fall asleep with dreams of getting better
But this particular dream just makes me tired
I give you time
and life happens between the minutes pouring by
There will always be something that
keeps you here and me there

 

But it's all a test right?
My misery has purpose
that is all that matters
Relationships take work!
So work. and work. and work.
Do it until the soul bleeds
I plan to die this way
in the arms of someone who doesn't see me

 

But this is who I am, right here, inside these lines
and you don't even want to read them anymore

 

It's hard to find anyone that does.

Can I steal this? This glimpse into my jumbled mind right now?

Because that really hit home. Incredible.
