(no subject)
I often find myself walking a thin, fine line
My sarcasm's weight to heavy to hold
I am me and I act as though you are you
But the you I find later is harder,
More perceptive than I see
I am blinded for I have been me for
21 years
In 10 months I have learned a lot
You talk to me like I've just learned,
Just learned how to speak
Just learned how to feel
In reality, I have
Expressing emotions I never knew possible,
Emotions I thought I conquered before
Alas you have blindsided me
Blowing me away,
Knocking me down
That late July night,
That early July morning
And yet over these threads
I have yet to learn
How to hold the knife
And keep it from slashing your heart,
Hurting your feelings
With my cruel, unknowing tongue
Apologizing every time you remind me
How sharp it is
How I wish I could turn that
Pain on myself
And teach myself
What I should have learned
The first time
Should have been the last time
And this will be the last time
My sarcasm's weight to heavy to hold
I am me and I act as though you are you
But the you I find later is harder,
More perceptive than I see

21 years

You talk to me like I've just learned,
Just learned how to speak
Just learned how to feel
In reality, I have
Expressing emotions I never knew possible,
Emotions I thought I conquered before
Alas you have blindsided me
Blowing me away,
Knocking me down
