WHAT I HAVE BECOME What I have become/Heather Crumley 2005© You say you want me to be direct. Say what I mean, spit it out, stop talking in circles. Well I'm not like you, so dependent on the surface I'm 100% metaphorical, and my train of thought runs underground and I can't tell you how I feel, because I know how you'll misconstrue what's so very simple oh and I know all the ways you'd open up to me just to shut me down This dissolution will not find its resolve within any rational time period. I've picked through your bag of tricks, and drawn out my own conclusions. I don't trust you, I want to but it just doesn't stick ya'know It just doesn't feel like I can My situation warrants caution, has all the red flags, flashing lights and blaring sirens, And I know that in love you take your chances, still I can't help but feel responsible for the pain I bring upon myself And you'll go and I'll let you go And you'll know that you had me at my best And you'll go and I'll know that I did everything I can don't pretend that we haven't preyed upon selfishness We have bathed in it but now somehow it doesn't feel as rewarding And I guess that's because we are different people I'm not who I was before going nowhere Yes we are different people in different places And I'm not that type of fun no more I know nothing will change. I know nothing will come of this. I'll still feel estranged, and you'll still kill yourself to reassure me. With all that's been said… all that's gone unnoticed I can't help myself I still want you, it goes on You'll never understand the chain of events as they are unfolding, you'll always question what I want from you. You never did get it you never could grasp what I've done for you. What I have become What have I become Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem
