*Such Differences

You know I find it amusing

As I look back on the past two years

I see how poorly I was treated

How dark my days were

The amount of time I wasted

On someone who didn't care

No matter what happened

Your words and actions

Always contradicting themselves

I couldn't be myself

I couldn't be someone else

I couldn't be who you wanted

You didn't know what you wanted

I was never good enough for you

But you loved me still?

I should have told you more about me

But you would never listen when I was serious

And when I joked they fell flat

When you joked, you made fun of me

What kind of relationship is that?

For two years I was with you

I went away and always came back

No more of that!

I've left for good

I see the differences in how I'm treated

And such differences they are!

Now I can smile and mean it

Now I can laugh and be sincere

I can be myself at all times

With no worries or guilt

I know the meaning of loving oneself

And of loving another

Such a pity you don't

No more crying over your empty words

Your harsh anger

Your stupid guilt trips

You are not worth my pain or tears

You're not worth my time

You never told me what was on your mind

When I started to open up

You told me it was too little too late.

Now you tell me what you're thinking

Well, guess what buddy?

It's too little, too late.

I don't want you around anymore

I'm through with the hurt

You can't injure my heart anymore

I've taken it back from your death grasp

And given it to someone who cares
