Thoughts: From: Me; For: You

'Cause I'm like a broken vase, lying on the floor. 

Pieces of me have somehow made it across the room, 

And people see me but decide to wait till later to throw me away. 

.

(And I wish on those glitter stars, but you never understand 

because none of my wishes come true and you don't understand.)

.

I'm tired and broken and aching inside 

But you don't give up and call for Peter Pan to take his shadow

(Not caring that I kept it for a reason so I could always remember you.)

.

I'm through with playing the grown up and being mature 

because I just want to fall to the floor and throw a temper tantrum 

because I've been mature my whole life and no one noticed. 

(And you said I needed to change, didn't you? Didn't you say that?)

.

We were once in love, no matter what you say, because you told me and I told you

And we were deranged but happy and that's all that really matters in the end, isn't it?

But now you've changed and I've died inside 

(And don't think you get to keep all the blame for yourself, now)

.

You knew my secrets

(like how I walked on lines and loved applesauce and apologized too much)

And I knew yours

(like how you sang badly in the shower and played music at full volume and cooked pasta)

And we weren't unique or cliché but we were us and that was enough to win us over

Simply. Wow. I have to take a breath. -takes a big breath- Now then, where were we? Ohhhh yes. Well, this is just another fabulous piece of work from you! You put yourself into this, that is obvious. Especially towards the end with the applesauce xP
I love that you personally put yourself in it, showed your heart and what you got inside that chest of yours. It's incredible and I wish I could do that (just a bit jealous)
