The Things I Know You Don't

The end of the world is pending in accordance to my mood swings.
Right now.
The sky is clear.
Thirty seconds from now, who knows? Doom could be impending.
I’ve been told before that I can be difficult.
With me you have to read between the lines.
I’ve been told that I can be bitter.
Let me wander, but not too far.
I’ve been told that I can be paranoid.
Keep me close, but don’t smother me.
I don’t want the drama that comes with you.
But I’ll thrive in the tension it creates.
So don’t start games with me.
I play to win.
And I liked winning more than I ever liked being happy.
I’m a very proud person.
You can’t change me.
And you can’t chain me.
You should know that.
You should also know
I won’t hesitate to hurt you if I think It’s necessary.
Don’t worry, I’d never touch you.
Emotional scars last longer and hurt more than any physical pain ever would.
And I can read you better than any book I ever could.
I don’t expect you’ll be here for long.
The minute you walked in the door I started calculating how long it would take you to walk back out.
Most people would have given up by now.
But you look like a fixer.
I can feel you trying to take down the walls I’ve spent so long building and reinforcing.
You should stop now.
Behind them lies the same bitter paranoia that I exhibit everyday.
If this is what you really want.
Go for it.
Just remember that so many much stronger than you have fallen.
But, if you’re still here in the morning.
Don’t let me go.
And, more importantly don’t let me, let you go.
