No longer do I seek thee
Oh wretched feeling of confusion
Causing me to forget who I am for who I feel
You cut me deep, making a wound that will never heal
I just can’t be with you love
Over the years we’ve waned and waxed like moon cycles
Never quite getting to a balance
Always head over heels or nothing at all
You influenced my stupid ways
Making me look like a fool in the worst ways
But still I sought that feeling
That feeling that’s been described to me for years in many forms
But I never truly felt you
I only imagined what someone else’s love would feel like
Never having love of my own
So to you love
Fuck you
You never made me feel brand new
Only made a brand new fool
I never cried tears of joy
Only rivers of pain
My heart never healed
I stay broken hearted
You were never my best friend
Just another enemy that controlled my mind
You dashed my heart to pieces
Broken beyond repair
I no longer feel the pleasure
No longer have a need
No longer feel anything but the numbness
That comes from many sleepless nights
Thinking about one day
When I no longer have to hate to love you
