I've had this conversation countless times.

I can't seem to convince myself.

My pleas have fallen on deaf ears.

And in the company of these four walls.

I cower in shame.

You can't do it

And I scream.

The pressure is building.

You'll give in

But I won't.

Im strong this time.

You need it

And I know it was wrong.

But even when I felt nothing.

I felt it completely.

My hurt had no healing.

Just one more time

So its no surprise.

When I looked in the mirror.

And you smiled.

It's ok now

I smiled back.

Before I smashed it.

Keep going

I took one last look at the pieces of me.

As that familiar burn consumed me.

I thought you were strong enough to be without me

I lied.
