Weight Words

I really thought

  I really thought

    I really thought

This could be something

And really 

I'm sorry 

To say I was wrong

I was gone 

For a second 

In my head 

In this moment

In this whole thing

But its apparent that we

Need 

Different things

And I can't be

Anything 

Less than I am anymore

Nor 

Can I be extra

Or able 

To pretend 

That things inside me 

Aren't broken 

Aren't hoping

For someone to hold them

But you need 

Sunshine

And clear skies 

And I 

Am wrought 

With rain clouds

And downpours

And you're

Ill equipped

For these storms

And I need someone

To be hard

To see the bad stuff 

The old scars

And understand them 

I need someone 

Who will let me cry 

And soothe me

I 

Don't 

Want 

Someone to tell me 

That they don't care 

About my baggage

I want someone 

To help me manage

To hear it out 

And help me salvage 

What's left 

And only then 

Point out what's best

About life 

About us

But 

I can't trust 

Till they have seen the worst

And still 

Decide 

To stay

And I know 

That you can't 

Cause it's apparent

IWeightrthe words you say

And it's cool

I'm not mad

I'm just glad 

I figured it out 

Before it was too late

Cause you, 

Need something 

Simple

And I 

Have too much
