Black And White

Reasons For Leaving

You blamed me

for chasing you away.

You yelled at me

when I cared too much.

You would disappear for days

and weeks at a time

and leave me alone

to deal with my battles.

You would look at me funny

when I touched you.

You'd have an opinion

about everything about me.

You wouldn't smile

when I was around

and when others were there

you would be who I wanted you to be.
