and I wonder how I cope-
because I refuse to believe
that I am the only girl-
that I am the other girl-
that I am a girl to you at all...
I could not speak,
when you were in the room...
and I gave the wrong impression
before I walked away from you,
I didn't tell you
that you are what I want-
and you are what I like-
and I don't know how to fix
what was never whole in the beginning...
I don't know how to start over
when I never started at all...
So I exhaust all my resources
and extinguish this dying flame
and maybe someday-
this tension, if not broken
will break me...
and I will walk away
and find that your shadow
has followed... |
