I’ve apologized for pushing
Though you should’ve stayed away
Because you chose this cyclical pattern 
Of the games that you play
Was this a one sided connection
Our memories are fleeting
And I should have known better
Because our history is repeating
You’re like hitting a bowling pin
That wobbles but never falls
What a disappointment
I never saw behind your walls
I’ve filled pages in metaphors
Wondering if my words were pretentious
Always dancing around the meaning
As I didn’t want us to be fictitious
I think maybe that’s the reason
That I didn’t want to leave
Because if I never confronted it
Then I could still believe
I thought love could be found in patience
Building tolerance for my disclosure
Dropping little things in moderation
You still left me without closure
I guess you never figured things out
Keeping me on a leash was never fair
You can run but what are you running from
Maybe you’re damaged beyond repair
