Your tears on my shoulder.

Your whiny voice in my ears.

You beg me to stay, so I sit down beside you, wrap my arm around your shoulder.

I tell you everything that I wish I could hear.

I hate you so much.

You express everything that I never put into words.

An echo of my own mind.

Craving comfort I never spoke of.

I push you away, and you pull me back in.

please, just let me disappear.

Let me float away.

Stop reminding me of all the things I don't have.

That I refuse to ask for.

Why do you insist on saving me?

I never once wanted to save you.
