Take It Back

Take back your mink
Take back your pearls
Take back your diamonds
Take back your words
You gave to me
Take it all back
I packed your bags and added a few of mine
No extra cost
I just want to make sure you get it all 
Back
You gave so much
It was never enough
To cover up
What you kept for yourself
Selfish
Take it back
I’ll be constantly sending you all these thoughts and dreams you’ve subconsciously texted me
Keeping me warm at night
I’ll suffer without a blanket 
If you’ll take it away with you
It’s the season of regifting
Are you going to reuse the words
The pretty little things you adorned our relationship with
Will the next girl feel so special
Or will it all be real-
Ly fake
For her
Like it was for me
A fresh start
A new marathon
You’ll find her alleys
And side streets stuffed with garbage
In denial
Is it a game for you?
Is it a game for me?
