I try things my way
I try things your way
I try perhaps anything in between
no matter what you are unhappy
have I impressed you yet?
I love and care
I share my feeling
I keep you closeby
and I tell you I will always be there
have I impressed you yet?
I've become broken down
I feel defeated and unaccomplished
you make me feel like I am worthless
and I honestly cannot deal with it nor do I know how
have I impressed you yet?
Mixed emotions
misleading and confusing
should I even bother
do I even know myself and who I am
do you even care about me enough to know
should I even care about you through it all?
Perhaps I do what you slowly seem t be doing
take the past and wipe it all away
pretend I never care
pretend I never loved
and for your sake pretend we were never even friends
I can play it off as if we never met
if it is what you truly desire
but what would that prove really?
would it make you happy?
So perhaps I make the decision I know you want and leave
so I ask the question again
have I impressed you yet?
little do you seem to realize
that I stopped caring about the answer long ago
So you're superior to me?
I'll let you think that on your own
I never said I was perfect
and you are not either
If I changed my ways
just for you
the answer to the question would be yes
but I have no desire to do so
Why change for you
because it is clear you do not care anyway
why change for anyone
for what purpose do I have to impress
to drag someone along for pity?
I do not need that
nor do I want it
These words are pointless
as I am done explaining myself to you
or anyone for that matter
I'll never impress you nor anyone
and I could care less if I ever did
