Inter-dependent Variables

Sharp Leaves; Brothers In Law

You strung her along and told her things she easily believed. You were always a sweet-talker, she thought love was conceived. You let her believe that everything was real, from the moment you sang to her until the time she could no longer heal. It is taking her forever to realize how much it was not worth it, breathing in, breathing out, what was lost, she couldn't find it. You've stolen something from her, something you can never give back. This is how you repay her kindness, you left her broken with a crack. Shame, something you should feel. But instead you're proud that you treated her like a conquest, as if with your friends, you made a deal.

You must not allow yourself to be treated like a plaything.
