what's right

it means i let you go
it means i let you choose
it means if happiness lies outside of me,
that’s where you’ll be.

that’s what that means, and it's yours

not just emotions, sex, money

the right to choose

it doesn’t mean hands on

it means hands off

that's what that means

nobody does it better...

? do i get out of this?

out of my way
to satisfy
to teach
to help
to please

? was i looking for?

that "thing" i was looking for
in him, i do so much for,
i had in me all along

? did i get in the end?

a face to place
…that beautiful distraction
…that beautiful liar

an excuse to be distracted instead

…not focused

…out of my way to help another see
…out of my way to help another reach
…so far out of my way
with no one to help

no one knows me…
no one looks out for me…
no one can love me…

…the way i do

no more for him who cannot love himself.

…love me

so much
more than you love you
so much
so much more than you

…love me

no more for those that cannot love.
