_{i.
i'm sick of you,
safe and secure on your moral high horse.
i wanna knock you down, but then i realise
that that'd make me just as bad as you...

ii.
shut up.

iii.
one day you'll see me for who i am,
and you'll walk away from me as fast as you dare.
(please, god, don't let that day be till i can stand by my own strength.)

iv.
i see pieces of you peppered every where - little sprinkles
(like the ones you get in packets and pour on bread.)
but you make me feel guilty
in a way confectionery never quite manages to.

v.
i say don't worry,
but really i'm angry, a seething volcano
of resentment and fury
and just that little bit of humiliation.
i'd like to think you rejected me because you weren't good enough
to see me, but
i know it's because i'll never be good enough for you.

vi.
you had more sympathy for me
than anyone else
and more compassion.
thank you,
and you know what?
i'll probably always have a little thing for you.
(promise.)

vii.
one day, maybe you'll open your eyes
and see that you hurt me beyond the point of forgiveness, and
maybe, just maybe, you'll apologise.

viii.
why are you always here?
(why do you care so much?)
go away!
(never forget me.)

ix.
sometimes, i think you might have something to say,
and then you disappoint me.
constantly.
pick up your act.

x.
you're too sexy for your own good.
there, happy? i said it.
(now wipe that insufferable smile off your face, hun.)}
