You knew something was wrong

No matter how hard I tried to hide it,

You never made me tell you why

Or told me not to be so childish.

I know I kept you up at night

And was the reason you fell ill sometimes,

At times I'd pray for me to die

But all I could do was cut and cry.

You cried when you saw what I do-

But we both know I'm not like you.

You should know I struggled to feel

The one thing that should have been so real,

I'm sorry that I could not see

Just how much you loved me.

You told me that you understood

I soon found out you never would,

You didn't mean to lie to me

The weight I hold you cannot see.

You said you wanted me to change-

I had never felt so ashamed.

How can I make you understand

That this is just the way I am,

I wish that I could make you see

It's not your fault, this one's on me.

Now here's the truth I stand to speak

That I have never felt so weak.

So tired, So worn, So drained and done-

Let's go back to before it begun.

You've reached the end of published parts.
