December

Grand Rapids, Michigan 2019

How could you do it,

Live a lie for so long?

You’ve lost yourself in the delusions,

and brought me along

or is the delusion that you never left;

That you somehow are still whole.

And I am the one who’s lost, in a world unknown.

You could have killed me, or poisoned my soul

It would have been kinder.

Where did you go?

Didn’t you know, everything I did,

I did it all — I did it all for you

Who would’ve known,

After losing myself, I’d lose you too.

You don’t see reality, is what you said to me

As I bled on your living room floor

Ignoring my wounds, I held onto you

Believing you loved me and would never make me cry

I didn’t know reality,

This I can say, was not a lie

If I had, I'd never of kissed you

That Late December night
