Submission

I don’t know what you want from me,

You don’t know who you are anymore.

But I am breaking all the rules,

And I am pretending it is not for you.

I am lost in my own advice,

I give it to you and lose you.

And you can tell me what to do,

But I am fading out, I am wearing thin.

I am giving up on giving in.

Is this all you want from me?

To take me when you could use me,

And push me to the side when you don’t?

I will break my back for you,

But will you break yours for me?

I am trying to feel the way you feel inside.

I am bringing out the truth again.

I am breaking down the walls because they are crumbling around.

This has left me with no doubt,

I will be your distracting eyes if that is what you need from me.

I will be your stepping stone,

I won’t ever leave you alone.

I will take your mind off of the pain. 

I will stay the same.
