A year ago it was the same song and dance.
You couldn’t breathe and the people around you everyday didn’t want to perform CPR on you,
so you came to me.
Asked how I was only to bring up your misfortune and ask me to give you my fortune.
And I was kind. I gave from the heart because part of me still wanted you,
still felt that we had a chance.
Today, you play the same game and expected me to fall for the same trap.
Your love was conditional,
and now, so is mine.
I wish you the best,
but I cannot be sucked dry by you.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
