Footprints

We Weren't

You told me to be patient

And I waited for you too long

You told me to stop talking

And I had spent eternity silenced

You told me to be nice

Was I ever angry?

You told me to be different

Isn't that what I'll always be?

You told me to love you

And can love be told?

You weren't right for me

Because I was your shaky left

I was always pretending

And you left me dead, blind and deaf.
