Nothing But Myself

by k i k i   Jun 4, 2006


What was wrong?
Who do you blame?
Did I let you down?
Did I step a wrong foot?
Was I taking it for granted?
Was I thinking too much?

Somehow I blame myself,
For all of this.
Why, I can't pinpoint,
But you're not taking any blame anyway.
Wasn't I good enough?
Were you ashamed of me?

I was myself,
What was I supposed to be?
Whoever I am, was,
That was all me.
I was true to that person,
To all those emotions shown.

I wasn't fake,
I wasn't coy.
I was myself,
Wasn't it enough?
I thought you would,
Could accept the faults in me.

I thought you would see,
All that I could be.
You say you liked the way I was,
That I was perfect.
No need for change, alteration,
I fitted in just right.

The smile that lightened up,
My day, was that real?
All the feelings you said you felt,
Did you really show?
Slip of a button, one night,
Changed us forever.

I would do anything to,
Go back to where we were.
Patch up the milking blood,
The flaws in the relationship.
You can't, you won't, but why?
Give me a chance to explain.

You can't forget me,
Everything that we shared.
I was the first, remember,
The memories that were.
I'll always be here for you,
Being nothing but myself.

I won't change for me, for you,
But this love will continue all the same.
The outside my change,
Corrections may be altered to age.
Accept me as a person again; I have a heart,
Look inside and see the damage to it now.
