Today I'm feeling strong.
Today is the day to hurt me.
If you feel like you need to escape.
Today is the best day.
Nothing can phase me.
Today is the day I can switch off.
Place myself back under lock.
I don't need to be liked.
Loved
Embraced
Remembered.
I don't need anything or anyone.
If you've had enough of heartless fun.
Then just tell me you are done.
My walls are strong again.
You've had your peep inside.
The preview, a taste, a sample of what I'm like.
If it's something you don't want or like.
It's better to be harsh and outright.

I'll admit I wanted you, when you tied my shoe.
When you held my hand. I felt. Emotion
Attraction.
You drunkenly said you loved me three times.
But I knew drunken words are often lies.
Said I was amazing, beautiful all the right sweet things.
To make me feel at ease, to make it easy, to make me want to please.
And I let you because I wanted you, even when I knew the truth.

You asked why I liked you and I wouldn't say.
I don't think there should be follow up questions to drunken confessions.
Since your confessions are lies.

So I want nothing from you.
