Epiphany

Forgive me.
I didn’t know.
Nothing is the way it used to be.
I’ve been here so long,
Trapped in monotony.
I’ve remained the same
While all of you have changed.

Leave me here
All alone.
It’s where I should be.
This is where I’m safe.
I don’t belong with you.
relic,
I am not prepared for what’s outside.

So leave me here,
And leave me now,
Or else I’ll make the same mistakes that I have made before.

I can never save you.
I can never take your hand.
I’ve learned to accept this.
I’ve forgotten you and your sickness,
And I don’t miss a thing about you

I don’t know you,
And I don’t want to
If you’re everything I’ve seen.

You won’t listen,
Or be forgiven,
Before you lose everything you are.

Don’t you know that [bad word] can’t last forever?
You knew the end [bad word] soon.
You walked away from your forgiveness
Just when your chance [bad word] to prove to me
That you could be something
