Singletons

They caved in on me and I’m so aloof
I almost blindly demanded proof
That you loved me when I can feel
That somewhere you are real
That you exist and are true
That I am missed and that you
Meant every word you said to me
When you let me go free
And he clasps me like a dying grip
Coz he can’t bear to let it slip
That iron weight he seeks to bear
The ones he longs to tear
In two with his burning heat
And I will never fall at his feet
Because I was made for loving you
You were like a saint coming through
Til you left like a reckless abandon
And now I’m nothing but a fandom
Clicking like on a page
Like it is all the rage
And I’m not safe where I am
I know he would do what he can
To burn and bake and desecrate
I know his love is founded on hate
As it cakes at the edges and flakes
I’m told that it’s for our sakes
But isn’t everything these days
That how the movie plays
And how they convince you that they
Would do anything to keep the waves at bay
And I”m years carrying the burden they pass
Like something that is made to last
But it’s a net, it’s a web
And I decide to abandon it instead
Like some matrix binary fucked
You walked over the hill and I looked
And saw the reason for my existence
Please excuse my resistance
To being happier than I could contemplate
I would have liked to go on that date
