Dear Darling

Dear darling, I know you didn’t mean it Your mind made you do this Those cruel things you screamed You are so black and white So beautiful and insolent The words you say often shatter my heart Please, baby, just take me back to the start Dear darling, I was so enthralled with who you were Your big, beautiful blue eyes The way you held me all through the night Always making sure I went to sleep with a full stomach Your existence gave me chills Your very being consuming my every thought And while I didn’t know for sure, I never cared why you had to take all those pills From the moment I met you I knew I wanted you for myself What came with that? I didn’t consider I was blind to the fact that you were a splitter Dear darling, It was all going so well I didn’t know you had this side of you You hid it in a glass shell But one day you showed me everything It killed me but I knew I loved you I had to understand How could you say such horrible things to me? This was never part of the plan Dear darling, I love you - Nothing can change my mind I know you are hurting But no matter how many times this occurs And you feel as if you’ve lost control Please remind yourself that I am yours I will never give up on you For I know what you’re capable of A love that your heart has never been shown If you talk down to me, give me an aggressive tone Please remind yourself of my love I refuse to let you suffer alone Dear darling, I know you can’t control your thoughts You hurt me And I do not forget But you will maintain this evil For it does not define who you truly are And I for one, do not see it as a threat You will grow and you will learn You will love me in kind And together, we will figure out the other side of your mind Dear darling, Did you mean it? I cannot promise I will stay I know who you are, baby But how much longer will you drive me away? Sometimes it feels impossible Please do not hate me if I have to let go Do you ever worry about me? You like it, don’t you, baby - How I send my pain below? Dear darling, I am sorry I cannot stay I have to protect my own heart You understand, right? You only ever pushed me away But I will never forget how I taught you to love It really did feel right, baby But she was far too gentle for you to ever betray Do you even know how often she questioned how much she should weigh? Dear darling, I deserve this release I loved you more than myself How terribly sad So goodbye, forever I can finally find my own fucking peace. Dear darling, I fucking hate that I still love you.
