in all honesty

i was trapped with you

between how much you wanted me to be on your arm

to show me off as if i was a piece of art

and i myself needing something to occupy my hurting heart

i held myself hostage the way you held your gaze

i believed i deserved nothing more than your halfway love songs

and your promises that busted like marble thrown from the balcony

your faith in our forever disgusted me

and that is why i could not stay

because forever with you would have been short

i would not have thrived in your environment

before long you would've watered me with acid
