Story About You

Butterflies gone away,
    smile slowly fading,
        long sleeves start to return,
            in May.
My grades are slowly dropping.
        I'm not acing anything anymore.
Everything gets darker,
    my mind gets quieter.

        Everything came down.

You were my world.
    I was scared to let you in.
    I was scared to trust you.
              But I did
        and it was wrong.

I fucked up bad.
    All I wanted was you,
and now I'm on the border of
                life
                     and
                    death.

My thoughts circled the memories,
            your touch,
            your smile,
            your laugh.

You were my everything.
            I don't know where I went wrong.

Did you just fall out of love?
            Passion?
    Something drove you away.
Maybe you just lied to spare my feelings.
    You never really cared.

Well I. Don't. Care. Either.

                        I'm lying.

If you called at 3am
    Or showed up to my house at 2,
                I'd let you in.
                I'd talk to you.
I will go through tons of pain to make you happy.
Since you're the only one I care about.

That's what keeps me from moving on.
I'm not attached.
I just care.
