side step

Our bodies melding are a mere distraction.
"Having fun", you called it.
You're the only guy who wanted me more by virtue of my inexperience rather than viewing it as a liability, a recipe for danger.
You must be evil to doggedly pursue your chance at immortalising yourself in my history.
You must be lonely and self-hating to recognise I am too.
I was a conquest to prop up your shaky ego. You never once considered how hollow and self-absorbed your intentions would make me feel.
Somehow it feels imperative I now hold onto a facade of pride. Maybe that means for once, I recognise the need to love myself before someone else that doesn't.
You're not interested in purifying my soul.
You're not interested in sharing my bed.
I play Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" and wish these messy emotions could be glamourised by a flippant pop song where the girl is in control.
I wish you were worthy of writing love poems about.
