You wish I'd give in

You wish I'd give up.

You'd wish I'd stop fighting

For me and for us.

You wish I'd stop arguing

Stop pointing fingers

You wish I'd quit blaming

But my fire, it lingers.

We were great, sure

Until suddenly we weren't.

I liked you as a person

But not much more than a friend.

You were cool and funny

I was, well, am, me.

We got a long just fine

But you wanted more from me.

There are a lot of things I can't have:

You

Your love

Your care.

I shouldn't be allowed your smile

Or to ask you truth or dare.

I shouldn't be given your warmth

Or your adoration;

Ab aeterno:

"From the everlasting"

"From eternity"

"From outside of time".

The philosophy of ab aeterno is beautiful.

It is forevermore,

Abstract,

Latin

(as Latin tends to be).

They'll never understand that you don't have to snap

To be heard.

They'll never understand that their astounding rudeness

Cruelty

Hatred

Discriminatory remarks

Hurt actual people

GASP

I want to be them.

Those girls, with their perfect hair

Perfect faces

Perfect bodies.

Shining stars

Of perfection

Not a blemish to be seen on their faces
