I'm sorry

I find myself often think about you.

I find myself worrying a little too much about you.

I worry because I know you are not okay.

Every decision I make seems to be influenced by you.

See how in the end it's just you.

Funny thing is, You've never actually thought about me.

You've never once put me before you.

Now that you are alone,

I'm the one that needs to be running to you.

Because you know I would.

You know, I'd do anything for you.

You know this because I have.

I have, but I won't

I won't because I'm tired

I'm tired of carrying the weight of others

I'm tired of putting myself last

I'm tired of putting myself through hell,

Just for you to stay up into the light.

Just for you to constantly complain.

Just for you to constantly ruin your chances to go up any higher.

I won't.

I found myself.

But I don't think about you any more.

I don't worry too much about you anymore.

I don't worry because I don't know if you are okay.

Every decision I make is mine.

See how in the end,

You are you

I am me

And we just think about ourselves.

We put ourselves first.

That's how it's supposed to be.

I'm sorry.
