Personal Poetry For Rainy Days

"When you idealise a human being,
when you put them atop a pedestal,
when you dehumanise them,
when you make them a god,
they can't compete with your inner view of them,
their flaws begin to cripple them
but you'll never see,
because they are a god
in your mere mortal eyes"

He says I shouldn't make time
for someone who won't hold my hand.
He says that I don't need you,
I still want to need you

You were always a shitty friend.

I wanna call you on your birthday...

I guess I should have seen it coming.
you were too good to be true.
but I was blind to your flaws, you were cracked and easily read,
your perfection was all in my head.

I used to be in love with you.
Then I just loved you.
Now I'm just in love with this feeling.
So I'll just hold on,
a little longer,
because I don't want to let you go.
Was it my fault?
Because I easily confused you,
for someone who would hold my hand..

You were always a shitty friend.

I wanna call you on your birthday.

So I'll hold on,
to this feeling.
I'll hold on,
to this feeling.

I would never want you to stop your life..
So I guess it's fine,
to leave me behind..

Footnote

Originally I was going to leave the name out but it doesn't really matter plus it makes me feel a little better about this situation.

Also, I used lyrics from a couple of tracks off of Four Songs For Losing You by Flatsound. I listened to the whole EP while writing this, it helped me keep the mood to finish it in one go.
