Overpowered

Its rare that I disclose any of the people that influence my work. However, this piece just screamed dedication, unfortunatley ...... Reading is only half the matter. I hope you can understand where we stood (you know who you are).

How do I begin

To tell the tale of

What has come to pass,

Of what

Maybe I wanted to last

But finally fell short

Because I was tired of dealing with your ass.

Alas,

A friendship like this should never be

There was no use in being fri-enimies

“I love you, then I hate you, then I love you”

Type vocabulary

Why?

But this tug-o-war relationship

Never worked since

We’re on opposite ends

One pulling the other in the wrong direction,

I can’t do this anymore.

Drawing in open seams as if it were a chore

Having to constantly restore

The good time we once had before.

Washing my scabs of my

Anger for you on a daily basis hurts.

And while each feel as though the other

Has been deserted

I just want to let go of this

Rope.

But how can I

Without allowing you to fall hard.

No one to catch you, because we’re both pulling alone,

Or do I just stop pulling

Allowing you to drag me

Along for the ride until

I’m neck deep in murky water

I am not strong enough.
