How you said yes when denial was all over your face
When no was all that was written on your face
How you didn't want to respond
How you mumbled
How you ran your fingers through those messy hair of yours every once in a while

How you'd put in effort but were never on the receiving end
How you looked down upon yourself and how you'd shy away from situations
How you won't fight and would rather take shit
How you'd care for everyone but yourself
How you'd go out of your way to help them
How you never wanted anything in return

How you let yourself be manipulated
How you'd look for approval sometimes
How you would get carried away by the moment
laugh
and I'd get to hear that heavenly sound but then would apologized profusely for laughing

How what you think would annoy or tire me just make me want to hold you more
How you'd assume the worst
You sounded like me
You were me

How you feel more comfortable texting and that's when I can talk to you the most
How you were hard on yourself and would beat yourself up about mishaps that happened

How you had a court of your own, where you'd interrogate yourself,
defend everyone but yourself
Yes you were me
I saw myself in you baby
