He looks at you and smiles
Close your eyes, blink him away
You know he means well
But you'd rather not say
How is breathing annoys you
And his Jokes aren't funny
His body concerns you
And his voice is no longer sunny.
He's stepped over the line
That you drew with concrete
He didn't fully get it
Now you've gotta be discrete.
But he makes fun of you
Like it's quite okay
Your sensitive soul
Runs dry and decayed.
What do you protect him from?
The truth sets people free
But the roof over your head
Is good enough to me.
You're scared they'll judge you
And tell secrets that bleed.
Friends wouldn't do that, doll
They'd understand and agree
That your happiness comes first
No matter the feelings from he
But you're chainsmoking again
As if that'll make you more loving.
And the facts you need to share
Are nowhere near; you see
He's a big boy hun
And you're old enough to leave.
Make your choices firm
And your heart complete
By doing what's best for you
Keep moving those heavy feet.

"...and tell secrets that bleed..." a wondrous line this. Enjoyed the vitrolic undercurrents - well woven quiet rant :D
