what was really true
what you left with was not anything
but a little bit of me
you didn't put it in your pocket
you threw it in the air
and caught it with your ego
swallowed it whole
consumed me without ever knowing what i tasted like
it's wasn't fair
but even if it was
i wouldn't be any taller
i swim alone again
i sleep alone again
you don't act like a friend
you're a smothering pain
i'll put my hand over my mouth
because seeing you makes me ache
grind my teeth
i have a burning desire for answer
but how can i ask you to be
more like
more like
me
