Bitter Cold

"My love... was not supposed to make you cry."

Disconnected

This wall was not expected

But after all my introspection

And your own deflection

I've come to terms

You don't deserve my time

You don't deserve my space

You don't deserve my kindness

You don't deserve this face

My boundaries have been set

Requirements not met

You're wasting so much time

Commit an apathetic crime

Disrespected

This bitterness was not expected

But after all my introspection

And your own projection

I'm closing down

I don't deserve your words

I don't deserve your guilt

I don't deserve your demons

I don't deserve to wilt

But my love is still in reach

I've yet to load the breech

You're still wasting so much time

Commit an apathetic crime

We're out of time.

"My love... was not supposed to make you cry."
