"I’m the one who didn’t want youanymore. The one who found a morecomfortable reason not..."

“I’m the one who didn’t want you

anymore. The one who found a more

comfortable reason not to need to

tolerate this back and forth kind of love.

You did not push me away. I’m the one

who had my arms reaching outward

so no one, not even you, could get close.

I’m the one who should be captured,

the one who should be treated like the traitor.

You never went back on your words, but I did

go back on my promises and made it seem

like my meaning has always been laced

in certainty. I’m the one who broke this,

who destroyed your thoughts on realistic love

because I couldn’t make up my selfish mind.

I’m the one who should have all the fingers

of injustice pointed in my direction. I’m the one

who should have to pay for the crime. I’m tired

of trying to prove myself innocent because

I have always been the one to blame.”
