[i know this much is true]

by Anar Patel

what to do with life
sometimes mine is such a waste
stumbling around blind

refusing to see
i used you as my crutches
could not stand alone

clarity is rare
i love the moments i see
i can smile again

right now i don't know
if i was ever for you
i was just a waste

now i am seeing
i don't need you to hold me
i'm alright alone

but sometimes i wish
that i knew this all along
you always loved me

i apologize
for never letting you in
god i know you tried

i can't accept love
i have come to terms with this
but i hope for change

so please bear with me
while i try to make amends
can you forgive me

i don't deserve it
but you are better than me
you always will be

excuse my rambling
i am not good at clean breaks
you already know

i don't want you back
i want to explain it all
and just find some peace

so i'm still selfish
and you are still full of love
do we ever change?

And we all get hurt and hurt others. That is also part of life. Sometimes we hurt others with no intent to do so. One never really knows when we asking for too much or being asked for too much. Sit back and take life in a little longer.
