I'm only doing this to prove to myself
That I'm not pathetic
That I'm neither weak-minded
nor perhaps a bit mad
at the very least that I'm not
some sort of nuisance
Chasing you when maybe
I'm supposed give up
Clinging to us when it could be
you'd prefer I loose my grip
and let you drift further from me.
Am I a fool, missing every subtle clue
you send my way?
What's the script for breaking up
when neither of us wanted to?
And what exactly is the etiquette
for remaining friends?
