sometimes i think i have multiple personalities..
i could say i hate you and love you at the same time.
i could agree with you now, but silently not like what you are saying or anything about you.
i could say your favourite song or band is pure crap, but later in the week, in my room, i am dancing to the tunes.
i could call you my good friend, and still hurt badly deep inside for what you’ve done, even tho i’ve forgiven you. (it’s not easy)
i could think of you as a quitter because you left your friends, but still want to be there for you.
but the truth is, (and i’ve thought deeply about it)...
to the first butterfly:
i don’t hate you.
but i find it hard to agree with you. not because you are wrong, but because you hurt me. and for me finding it hard to agree with you, is something i have to deal with, not you.
and i do love and hate your music. i can never decide because your music reminds me of you.. so many good memories, sad memories and in-between memories.
i’ve forgiven you, but i can’t call you my best or good friend anymore. it’s so hard to trust you and it’s getting harder. -it was my fault for agreeing with you (when i could’ve simply said ‘no’). -i think it was too fast, too soon. i don’t know if it’s some trust issues i have to deal with myself, but i’ve been used before, and i am not willing to take the risk or invest in this anymore.
we’re still friends, no matter what, and i keep my word. to me, you will always be the rainbow and the rain.
and for the last butterfly, i don’t think you’re a quitter or a loser, but you didn’t have to leave. and i still want to be here for you, even if you want to pretend i am not there, even if it is too hard for you. i will still give you the biggest smile when i see you and i will ask you, “how are you?” and you can answer it, or not. up to you.
sometimes it’s best to remain silent, before i contradict myself.
