» Poem: I'm Not Okay
I'm Not Okay

Of all the things you put me through,
I know i'd said i'd try to do
My very best for you,
Even when your friends kicked me,
And all the guys they hated me,
I swear to God your the only reason,
I didn't try to jump this season.

Now you'll never look twice
At me when you walk past,
To know me and forget - how nice,
I thought the good times they would last,
But all we did was fight.
I was wrong,
You were right.

So listen,
I'm not okay,
I might have lied,
But listen let me have my say,
It's only cause I know I tried,
To be the man you wanted me,
To see and know and be and see.

But listen,
I'm not fucking okay,
You left me and you never looked back,
An all the days we spent on the track,
An all the things I know I lacked,
The one thing wasn't trust in you,
Or love
Even though what you put me through.

So now I sit on the porch and wonder what may be,
When times are old and people see
What they did to me.
I try to forget all the names,
And though I know your were to blame,
I forgive every mistake you made,
Cause I know I'll never be free
Of you.
Im not okay,
Im not okay,
Cause I love you.
