How many times,
Will it take you to see?
All of your lies,
Kill me.

You can't understand,
You only care for yourself.
How much can I withstand?
I need your help.

Why do you do this?
My head spins with confusion.
I'm in an abyss,
My pain is not an illusion.

And, now, I look at the mistake I made.
And, now, I know that I'm afraid.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
