toxic

one day you're hugging me
Laughing till our stomachs hurt
Calling me your other half,
your twin.
The next day,
I receive your cold shoulder
Everything we were yesterday,
It's gone.
No more laughing,
But ignoring.
I don't hear your voice talking to me anymore,
But to someone else's.
I ask you a question,
you let the silence respond.
At night
I can't sleep,
trying to figure out what I did wrong.
What did I say?
What did I do?
I know you well enough,
To have a feeling what the problem is.
But I can't accept that feeling,
Because you're just too stubborn
To admit I'm right.
I'm being punished for being right.
Is that even fair?
But I want your company,
I want your voice talking to me
I want you next to me,
joking, goofing around.
I need that.
So I wait,
Knowing it's just a phase.
A phase that happens one too many times.
This cycle just keeps going on,
And I can't stop it.
Deep down I know,
That I have to let you go.
You're toxic.
You will be the death of me.
But I can't bring myself to do that.
I love your other side way too much.
So I just wait.
My heart continuously breaking.
I'm constantly trying to sew it back.
But what's done is done.
And one day,
All my heart will be given to you.
But your heart is far away talking to someone
else.
Because I cared too much,
Trying to help you
Left me with this silent treatment.
Trying to speak my mind
Left me with a cold shoulder.
You said you loved me,
But sometimes I was just a stranger to you.
Maybe you were bipolar.
But that's no reason to forgive the way you
treated me.
