Nothing But A Stranger To Me

By MidniteBlaze

Gone for so long
keep your distance quite well
this time I agreed to it
I never bothered
said everything I needed to say
and I let it be

Now it seems I have become used to it all
this new lifestyle
without you
I serve no purpose to you
so of course it would be fine for your case
but here you are again

After several days
your call reaches me
you leave a message
as if everything is just peachy
you left me with an attitude
just to come back with what exactly?

What more could I give you?
do I accept you back into my life
and if so, how far?
cannot accept you to the extent I have tried so many times
dear god I will not try that again
not after knowing I had a chance
but no oppertunity for it to happen

The circumstances were not under my control
I would have been willing to set up something else to work it again
perhaps something even sweeter or more romantic
but fuck it now
cause you threw me aside
so do I take you back
and if I do to what extent?

It's been so long I start to forget what you look like...
but I cannot even if I wanted to
I am too connected
and several pictures keep me from not remembering
you will never see me like you used to
as you even basically told me our love was a lie
"after the first two months it went to hell and everyone knows it..."
I do not agree be so it...

You left a message
when I realized it was you I was shocked
but will you really be there for me like you always promise to be
otherwise you are nothing but a stranger to me
as I have been to you for god knows how long
