Me, Myself, and I

It appears to be
That people tend to leave
Rather suddenly
Making it hard to breathe

You said you'd stay
And yet, you still walked away
Turn the tables
Flip the signs
I'm not the only one who's blind.

My eyesight is bad
Your vision as well
But your handicap
Is from your cruel show and tell.

You held onto me
Like I was some sort of prize.
You fooled me, for you're a wolf in disguise.

I'm used to feeling this way,
Kicked off to the side.
Forgotten.
Questioning my very impact in life.

I've had to deal with too much.
It comes back,
Haunts me through the dark.
This is a cruel game,
Run by puppeteers with teeth like a sharks.

Society is crippling.
The world, seems to be tumbling.
Guide me through this ocean of sorrow.
I fear there's no tomorrow.
Help I need,
But afraid to ask.
Congrats, society.
You've broken me at last.

Soon, there shall be no more of me.
I shall be gone, care free.
I'm sorry, I don't know what's wrong.
I've been lost for so long,
I'm not even sure I want to go back.

Me, myself, and I.
The only people who will truly stick by my side.
Everyone leaves. You will too.
But there's one, aside from us.
She's a lovely girl, you'd like her.
Her name is very pretty,
Have you ever met Ana?

We talk when everyone else is gone.
She's told me things I've known all along.
She may be telling lies, I'm not stupid.
But there's something about them,
That sings with truth.
