I didn't really want
To be the one
To force these feelings
Down your throat
To force these images
Infront of you
But Someone
Has to
Before it's too late
You can't continue
To do this
To me
I'm sorry baby
But I'm not judgemental
Or atleast I try not to be
I only want to be honest
I don't want to live
Any more cliches
After walking out of your apartment
I dont even want
To cry these tears
When you tell me
I'm not allowed
To speak your name
When I'm standing
Outside of my apartment door in the rain
Trying to get in
Fumbling for the key
And trying not to contemplate
All of this but
I'm sorry baby
I can't help it
I've just got to strap
You down to this bed of shame
Make you see
What you're doing to me
I'm sorry baby
You're a weak man
To be using me
Like you do
To be assuming
That I'm always going
To take this sitting down
So much for respecting my elders
You think you have me
Wrapped around your fingers
But I'm sorry baby
To have led you astray
With my naked vulnerability
And new born naivite
I'm sorry
But someone has to do this
To slap you with some reality
Because I know
I deserve so much better than this..

Fuzz,
Wow...intense. And necessary I am sure. I liked the strength and determination in this piece. Appreciated that the physical part was just metaphorical. Good vent.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
