you think of me, too
a poem by [mikea]
Tired of thinking bout what could’ve been
more careful with my words I know I should’ve been
Do you ever think about just what we would’ve been
Is it weird they see the worse, I see the good in him
But I got multiple opinions
Like a commentary
I’m not waiting for something that’s only momentary
All these thoughts run through my mind and it’s just overbearing
Cause I’m sick of being hurt and shit
I’m tired of caring it’s
like I’m addicted to pain the way I hurt to feel
and I know you’ve felt the same and that never heals
I don’t know if it’s a game or even what I feel
I’m not convinced that what we have is purely something real
But a distraction from reality even if for a moment,
We one in the same and that’s just what brought us closer
He relate to the pain, and serving the cold shoulders
We in love when we drunk till reality hits us sober
They say, ya honest hours when you intoxicated
I say, Love is twisted and it’s overrated
I know, I tried to run but still I can’t escape it
And you know, no matter what, that ain’t fading
So I’ll get faded to forget
Deep inside, I know I won’t, tell myself that I regret it,
Deep inside, I know I don’t
Deep inside, I know you do
I know that you always have
Killing myself over someone who won’t ever love me back
Still naive to think you will,
Deep inside I think you do
Smart enough to say goodbye and know that
That won’t mean we through cause everytime that I’m out
I randomly think of you
and you deny it all you want
I know you think of me too
