Don't Touch Me Again
Why did you touch my hand
If you were never going to hold on to it?

You could have just as well left it right there
where you first found it.

By my side.
Why join me?
If we were going to end up on different trolley tracks
After all these years, why the hell did we bother to ride

Together

Why complain?

of the time I spent .....carefully spent
getting rid of
our so many,
many memories,
if it was going to really be my time you wasted.

Always complaining...

I'm taking way too long

Well,
So did you.

Turns out, so did I.

It took way too long to see past you

So why lie?

Why lie.

Why make me so confused?
Why drag this out
a memory further?

You Laid there
You lit the fuse

....
and now that I had to put these fires out alone
Do not run back
to touch a hand you threw to lose

I want you to walk pass the past
as I did.
Carrying the memory of my hand you didn't choose
and then,

I want you to accept it.

Same way you forced me to.
