Dahlia

Honestly
Your honesty was all I asked for
And I can't forfeit this neurosis
Any more than you can keep from getting bored
I tried and I failed myself
Autumn's waiting
It's here and
I've gone away

It's the way I am
I won't apologize for that
If you're hoping that I'll wish you well
I can't
And now you're just a box I filled with my mistakes
And I am finally okay
But you still destroyed me

I'm farther off
Much more than I ever suspected I would be
Inside you knew
You were not who you expected I would see
My mother and my father
Taught me better than to play with fire
I've suffered enough
You're everything that I cannot desire

Empathy
Is easier than faux retention
And you can't share your sighs with strangers
Forced into your apprehension
Astray and conveying this
Crass invasion
They've taken me away
Away

You know I couldn't care less
I won't apologize for that
If you're hoping that I'll give a damn
I can't
And I can't bare to waste a moment counting fates
And this truth has set me free
But you still destroyed me

I'm farther off
Much more than I ever suspected I would be
Inside you knew
You were not who you expected I would see
My mother and my father
Taught me better than to play with fire
I've suffered enough
You're everything that I cannot desire
