I’ve watched your intentions
Seen your reactions,
Dealt with the changes
I never thought I could make.
I’ve met your expectations
Till they broke my heart,
Spirit, mind and soul.
I worked so hard to make you think,
I was anything but wrong.
This time it’s true,
This time it’s right,
You never should have said
All those things you did tonight.
I’m tired of arguing,
Tired of pretending I care.
It’s clear my opinion doesn’t matter,
So why do you ask anymore?
Sometimes when you realize you can’t meet people’s expectations it hurts. Other times, you just realize if they knew you like they thought they did, they’d never have expected so much.

Thanks for reading.

Very powerful piece. Not just because of the emotion and feel behind it, but because of things I'm finally accepting and looking at about myself.
