My mind races with nothing but the negatives
I want to say hello to you so bad, so loudly
I want to continue to grovel and apologize like I've been doing this whole time,
But only out loud this time.
I'm the cowardly lion for the Wizard of Oz and I love it because it saves my heart from dying off some more.
I loved the way you treated me.
I loved that you were the only thing on my mind.
I loved that you wanted to stick around.
I hated that you were the only one that wanted to be nice to me.
I hated that you were only on my mind in a negative way.
I hated that you stayed when everyone else left.
It was a love hate relationship from the very beginning and you didn't even know it.
I wanted the cuddles.
I wanted the love, the warmth, the happiness.
I needed the help.
I needed the guidance, the medication, the tears, the hate.
I needed it all because I was and am sick.
And I'm sorry I couldn't be what you wanted and need in the relationship you dreamed up since a youngling.
I'm just the cowardly lion.
And I believe I'm just to scared and tired to roar.
