I wrote this after feeling horrible for hurting someone's feelings, who happens to be the closest friend I've ever had. Someone who cried with me when I needed it and someone who just knows when and when not to ask why. Someone who knows me, as me not as who I pretended to be, and without a second thought knows the difference of when I'm pretending and when I'm being real. This was my way of apology to her.
Stupid
Today there was a heart that hurt
From what I've learned, seldom does it stop
Cries out for others in pain
But vulnerable to insensitive words
Thoughtless laughter, a stab in the chest
A wound was just healed
And then ripped back open
Now the blood is revealed
Thinking of something else I could've said
Not paying attention to anything
As these thoughts hurt my head
Calls of my name go unnoticed today
One thing wrong, leads to something bad
I could've kept my mouth shut
And kept what we had
And just breathed
If you're angry that's fine
I stepped on a heart
Now I'm expecting what's coming to mine
Now I just breathe and I wait
Old times remembered; now visions in my head
Thinking about remembering thoughts
Because now the moment is dead
I try to take it back
And I wish that I could
But the action was done
Now my tries are no good.
Stepped off the sidewalk
Into the street
The cars miss and they miss
Not this last one I meet
It won't kill
But it sure will hurt
Now I'll think before I speak
And keep my mind alert
I've been told not to walk on eggshells
It seems I've been cured
With the wrong words to say
My mind still in shock
And stuck with my mental delay
-End-
"What if this IS the real me?!"
"I know you. I know it's not"
"But how do you know?!"
"I've seen the real you"
