Deadly Games

The Same

When we were kids

we were just the same

then

you changed and you wanted me

to change too

and I said no

you did some things that I 

didn't understand

so I got scared

and left

all I did was pray for you

to come back

but you never did

and we were so different

now

it's years later

and I understand

because now

scars marr my body to match yours

and I am in so

much pain

even though we don't talk now

we are just the same

again.
