The Devils tango

A tangle between two

The devil's tango

I keep waiting

And waiting...

Was it worth it?

I opened myself up to you!

Yet,

No response

No response

No response

...is that what you're thinking?

I hide and hide and hide-

Because I'm scared!

How was I supposed to know

That I'm carrying an

Ocean.

You want so, so, so much!

i have little to give

I grew your expectations as high as your ego

Just to have the waves crash in my face

And disappoint

Disappointment

Something I truly hate

Over and over and over-

It sinks over me as I

Drown in my own guilt

Yet.

I do nothing to stop it

I don't respond

Disappointment.

What do you want from me!...?

Love?

Affection?

I'm just a kid! Do you expect me to cater your every emotion and mood swing and consume you with love and hope and positives and not pretend I'm drowning while your swimming over me with pleasure not realizing YOU are pushing me down and down and down an-

Yet,

I grew your expectations as high as our dreams for us

"I love you"

Lies

"I'll never leave you"

Lies!

And you knew that

You knew and you still believed my lies were truth

Because i kept insisting

Why would i keep insisting...?

I knew i couldn't keep up

I knew i couldn't follow through

My Gut

It told me

Yet,

I insisted

Insisting...

Insisting

Insisting!

For what?

For me to leave.

Drifting away

Away from the love life,

The love life i had created for myself

Things got personal

Adventures i wasn't prepared for

24/7
