You drown me

You drown me

A Poem by Guess

I really want to leave you again
To leave you forever and mean it when I say "I'm done"
Each time I talk to you, it feels as though I'm just annoying you...
Why can't you just communicate with me better
I just don't understand it.

A part of me is always waiting for you to let me go
waiting for the day you won't want me
and yet nothing....
No confirmation that you want me to disappear
No confirmation that you want me to stay

It feels as though you keep pulling us under
I try to pull us out of the water
but you intentionally drown us
The only way I can breathe is to let you go
but I don't have the strength to loosen your grasp

I've told you its ok not to want this relationship
In fact I've asked you countless times if that's what you want
Yet you just give me a neutral response-
that leaves me even more confused
With the fewest words you just drain all of my energy
and with those few words you keep my hopes up
I feel so guilty for the dumbest s**t
but I know it isn't your intention to hurt me
or at least I want to believe that

I don't understand why you hate yourself so much
I wish you would just let go of your past
but I guess your scars are too painful to forget

This sad poetic discourse certainly highlights the unhealthy nature of a loveless relationship, only held together out of some sort of false sense of duty! The longer it continues the more difficult it is to resolve - better to endure a short shape pain bu breaking up than drag out heartache. Poignant share my friend... :-)
