I’m falling swiftly
\nI don’t know
\nwhat to do
\nhow to say that
\nwhere to turn or
\neven why<\/p>\n
Every time Someone
\nasks me
\nI know the right words
\nto say-
\nthe ones that won’t
\nraise suspicions<\/p>\n
I’m fine
\nok
\neverything’s good
\nno problems
\nnothing’s wrong<\/p>\n
anything I can
\nso they don’t see
\njust how broken
\nI really am<\/p>\n
asking for help
\nis not wrong
\nI know that
\nbut you turned
\nme this way<\/p>\n
Where asking for someone’s
\nhelp is like betrayal
\nWe should fight our own problems
\nand not talk about them
\nto anyone<\/p>\n
You had such a problem
\nwith my talking to him
\nyou hated it- loathed it
\nSaid why did I need him
\nI had you<\/p>\n
Having you is great
\nIt’s one way to cope
\nbut when you are the problem
\nYou need a third party
\nfor a sounding board<\/p>\n
Why am I even explaining
\nmyself to you-
\nYou don’t care
\nYour only concern is
\nyou con’t control me any longer<\/p>\n
You can call me anything
\nbitch
\nwhore
\nslut
\nloser
\ncrazy
\nanything at all
\nI don’t care<\/p>\n
I know the truth
\nI know that I’m not always there
\nI may not be the sharpest
\ntool in the shed
\nthe prettiest crayon
\nin the box
\nBut I’m me<\/p>\n
A mixed bag of
\ncrazy
\nsweet
\nquiet
\nmouthy
\nloud
\nsarcastic
\nand so much more<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
