You’ve chained me in emotional purgatory
There’s no more reanimation
I’m not a coping mechanism
To save you from your damnation
I waited for a love
That was never promised
We never talked about it
We were everything but honest
I felt the under current when we’d speak
And I tried not to get sucked in
Your wounds reflected my own
In a way neither of us could win 
I spent years bargaining with myself
Now here I am in acceptance
I couldn’t walk away
Because you were my reflectance
I got consequences
And you only had excuses
So you left me in your past
Once you saw me as useless
