The banging on the door
Worst thoughts come back to me
I might believe in what they say
When I am left alone with you
I should be leaving soon
I know this wound digs deep
I’ve cut bloodier before
I’ve cried harder before
But nothing pales to this night
Like knowing I’ve hurt you.
I saw two opened letters on the desk
I cut two straight lines on my chest.
You can do so much better than me
All I ever wanted was someone who loved me.
I collected yr majesty measured in words
How you will surely be the death of me.
I have tendered my resignation to people that love me
Because I can’t return the care they give
