Looking at the floor I declare nI can’t go on wasting all my time on you nTrying to ignore your despair nAs tears splash down nNaming every flaw of yours nLike a grocery list nnI never felt the way that you feel nI never knew my words could heal nDon’t have to look in your eyes to see nThe guilt reflected in me nnHope you threw away that self-help book nI bought for you nLike I only wanted to help nNothing was too small to overlook nI tried hard to nConcentrate on your mistakes nTo conceal my own nnSorry to have been so obscene nWould you accept my sincere apologies? nDidn’t have to prove anything nIt had to end nBut with gentle words nInstead of a shouting match.
