I win (the breakup)

At this moment

You're enticing me with your voice

I feel safe when I hear you

But you've made a choice

 

You dont want me anymore

You gave up on us

When all that we needed

Was a bit of trust

 

You fell for a girl

She talks to you daily

But does she care for you

The way I did, baby?

 

Do you love her the way

That you said you loved me?

Is this really the way

You want things to be?

 

You say you want to feel loved

By me

But I can never be

Who you want me to be

 

Of course you think I don't love you

Because I'm not always free

And I won't act like I do

If she is here to compete


Now you want me back

But I'm not comin'

If I dont get what I want

I'm runnin'

 

You tried to fix us

But we are too broken, you see

So move on with your life

And leave me be

 

You say I win

So where is my throne?

And what's my reward?

Being alone?

"You say I win,

So where is my throne?

And what's my reward?

Being alone?"

 

Love that part!

Correct

You are 100% correct. Even if it's hard to walkaway, it can be hell to stay.

"The key to a perfect relationship is expecting 60/40. Each side should give more, and expect less."

so true

Wow, you said it all. I wonder why relationships are maybe one of the hardest and most difficult aspect of life. When it's bad, it seems to bring your world crashing down. But when it's good, so many things come alive for you. To me, it doesn't take as many reason to cause a relationship to be deemed bad. But for a relationship to work there are so many requirements that must be in place, times two, for it to, #1- happen (begin)  #2 stand the test of time. I liked your poem and look forward to reading more.
