In Your Head

I thought you would still love me when I felt like a failure or was under the covers crying. 

I thought you would still love me when my mind was filled with darkness and anger. 

I thought you would still love me when I told you I was fine but you knew I was lying. 

I thought you would still love me when I wasn't able to love myself. What I didn't realize is that all the while, you didn't love yourself. 

Now, instead of hurting yourself the way you used to, you are hurting me instead.

I thought you would still love me enough to fight for us. 

I still love you despite the walls you build.

Don't you hate not ever saying how you really feel? 

Everything you are running away from is in your head. 

You don't need me now and it kills me. 

You used to need me.

You used me.

Words sting but silence is what breaks the ♥.

The first time it was me, this time it's you. Can we not both be healthy at the same time? Are we each other's poison? Once we talked about our issues we found a resolution. If you'd give that a chance, there'd either be a beginning or an end. At that time, I'd have to be ok with either because I would know we had exhausted our efforts.
