sometimes they need you
like water on a dry plain
sometimes they keep you
like a pirate keeps his treasure
sometimes they love you
like a mother adores her daughter
sometimes it's not a fairytale
sometimes they leave you
like they never wanted anyone
sometimes they hurt you
worse than physical pain could ever hurt
sometimes they use you
like a knight in a game of chess
but all of this
for what?
-for your own personal gain
