Never Come Back

This anger I feel

I cannot put it away

It growls behind closed doors

It wails in my hands

I have no answers to console 

No questions to steer its direction 

How can I control how I feel

When you won't control yourself?

It's my job to feel better

My job to control myself

My job to be the bigger person

While you fail me

My job to be mature

My job to explain

My job to conceal

The bitterness in my pain

While you fuck up once more.

Your flaws and shortcomings--

They can be tracked down to your upbringing...

Then do it.

Do it quick.

I am not your keeper.

Do not ask me to forgive when you fail to change.

You fail to try.

You fail to listen.

You fail to concede.

You cower in your selfishness.

Your hesitance.

Your apathy.

And your laziness.

I resent you.

Never ask me why again.

Never ask me how you can fix it.

Never ask me.

Never tell me.

Never come back.
