Waste Not, Want Not
Ripping out my lungs and a kidney
Until you tell me you don’t need it
But it is too late
Because I am writhing on the ground
In a puddle of my blood and tears
Wondering why
I gave things I needed
To someone
Who already had them
Until you tell me you don’t need it
But it is too late
Because I am writhing on the ground
In a puddle of my blood and tears
Wondering why
I gave things I needed
To someone
Who already had them

Author's Note
Just about giving up parts of you, for someone who never asked, someone who never wanted you in the first place. Regret for the things you gave away, that you needed, and pain because you wish someone else needed them because you want to be needed.
