'Let's just be friends'

By Lime

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

i'd like to say i'm handling it with grace Of course that's in a perfect world Because all i'd really like to do Is shove it your god forsaken face You said you'd never leave me, You said you'd always be there Since you broke that promise It's time for you to see what i see i really don't deserve this and one thing i'd like to know why the hell didn't you tell me That our "thing" was one big hit-and-miss Everything was one big lie And i can't believe you told me At lunch, at school, stating that our relationship was bye-bye So stay the hell away Don't try to talk to me Don't try to be my "friend" At least 'til the spring of May.
