Jaded

We've heard it said that desperate times call for desperate measures...I did something today. Something I will probably regret later. It should feel wrong...bad...but it feels...normal...indifferent.

I had Jaded by Aerosmith stuck in my head and I wanted to write a poem about being jaded :) it seemed appropriate.

Reminder: I'm not always depressed when I write. But when I write happy ones, they're either cheesey love poems or just really, really crappy...





I see you in my dreams
I wake up with these screams
As I'm calling out your name.
No surprise that nobody came.
I make these excuses for you,
Reasons you do what you do,
But it takes too much energy...
How can you do this to me?
Now, baby, I can't wait forever
Cuz forever takes too long.
And I don't wanna get my hopes up
In case you're already gone.
And how can you not have seen it?
It's been me all along.
I was the one.
I was there when you were scared
And you needed someone to hold onto.
I was there as your best friend
Every day...
But your kiss and your hugs...
They made me fall in love
But sometimes now I hate it.
You left me jaded.
