A/N: Ahem. I needed to vent. I don't know if this even makes sense. Yes, I do realise there are no full stops and there's very limited punctuation. That was deliberate. This is like...free verse. Everything in italics would normally be put in "quotation marks". I don't know if writing this has made me feel better or worse. I don't know what I'm going to do with it. Whether or not I'm going to show it to who I wrote it for. (Regular readers of mine/ones who've been to my profile will know who that is.) Reviews will eventually be returned. Thanks for taking the time to read my depressive rantings.
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
I
want to stay friends (you
said)
Oh
yes, let's stay friends
So
we won't talk for six months
Maybe
after that we'll be able to muster a(n awkward) Hi
And
maybe in another six months we'll be able to ask How
are you?
And
(actually) care about the answer
But
not in the (vindictive) way we do now
Not
in that way that makes me wonder (makes me wish) that you would reply
Horribly, Everything's going wrong (since you left)
Oh,
but I don't care (about you) anymore
I
don't care that you look at her the way you (used to) look at me
Like
you don't care that I put my scissors away (under my bed)
You
don't see the pretty patterns I make on my skin (so we can both
pretend they're not there)
You're
better (than that) You're doing so well
How
would you know?
It's
not like we talk anymore
It's
not like you ever see me
(It's
not like) you care
When (it feels like) everyone else has left I'm here for you You promised (you lied)
You
want to forget (about me)
About
all my mistakes which became yours too
About
how I once made you feel
Maybe
because it hurts (me) too much
To
know that I still want to make you feel that way
Even
though we both know you can't
I
want to forget
I
want to remember
I
don't know what I want
(Do
I want you?)
I
carved an M into my skin (for you)
No,
for me
For
masochism (the pain I put myself through, for you)
For
moan
For
melodramatic (me)
For
malicious (you)
For
memories
For
mirror (mirror)
I
want to stay friends
Ha,
I'll see what I can do
Darling,
we both know what you're capable of
There's
the evidence right here
When
I look in the mirror
To
see myself (fading again)
There's
more each day
Jagged
red cuts
Bones
visible
But
you don't see (them)
She is all you see
You
don't see me
