Walking Contradiction

There's so much to say, and yet so little.  I am glad we met, and yet I wish we hadn't.  You are a great man, and yet you can be cruel.  I am sure you have heard this before, but it's like you're two different people.  And then there's this:  My world puts on rose-colored glasses when we are together.  

And then when we are not, the colors I see are pale and listless.  

Which is how I am now,
without you.  

Pale as the little white 5 mg pill the nice doctor gave to help get me out of bed.
To help get me out of dead.  
Listless as a sad little girl
Without her daddy.  

Your silence is killing me. And yet I know there's no other way.  Cut it off, like the dead tree out in my yard.  Shut it down, and feel good about the distance, for once.  The distance making it easier, where it once made me ache.  

We are over.
And I feel your intensity fade
Our intensity
Fade.
