I wish I understood.

I wonder what goes on in your mind when you say there's someone you despise
Why don't you look at them as if you want to induce their demise
As if you hate them and want to shoot daggers through their eyes
Why are you so kind
Is "I hate you" a lie?
Even after they bullied you and spoke to you rude in every line they typed
Yet you grab onto their backpack, and you follow like a dog on a leash. You act as if you lie when you say they aren't kind
You say that they're mean
So why do you still follow behind
Why do you say you hate the people when clearly, you believe they're nice
Because if they weren't, you'd leave them behind
Just as you did I
And it wasn't fair and it wasn't nice and it wasn't anything good
And I was abandoned for a longer time than anyone ever should
For something much more simplistic
And years less rude
Then the lines that left you blue.
Yet you're still distant
Even if you apologized
I'm grateful, I promise
I will not resign
From the job called this friendship
I wish to be hired
But i wish you'd stop acting like a Gemini
Two faces you hide behind
I'm tired of these schemes and lies
And heinous crimes
And every little thing you've left in my mind
Because genuinely, it sets me on fire
They say you're a narcissist, which isn't a lie
I will not deny it, but I will phrase it kind
Because those who aren't, don't bomb with love for a few months, then leave to keep them on your mind.
I hope this therapy helps your life
But it's not helping me,
for I am villainous in your eyes.
You're not supposed to talk to me
And you keep on telling lies.
Making me the bad guy.
So why the hell are you still on my mind?
Why am I still so kind?
Why do you call me at night?
Why is she still by your side?
The one you don't like?
