you once told me we're not going last forever
but i told you i would do whatever i can to make us last,
i would go anywhere you go,i would give anything, just to be with you
But then you slapped me with your words
You said that you didn't want to stay " like this"
that you wanted to like a "him"
you cried saying you wanted to make your parents proud
you cried saying you'll never be able to be yourself
and i cried with you and for you and because of you.
i hated myself, i hated being "this way"
I hated society for building up the thought that being "gay" is sick
i hated everyone,i hated religious people for saying we are hated
i hated myself. and you hated me. because you thought i hated you.
I'm so sorry love.
it kills me to see you knowing i can't talk to you, knowing we can't be an "us".
it breaks me the way you pretend that "we" never happened.
