Written to Jojo's "In the dark"

I didn't know I had a gift, she always believed it
I tried to send it to her, she didn't receive it
I went the extra mile, she thought I was teasing
I claimed I was where I am now, and she's the reason
But now we aren't together, my heart keeps bleeding
What kills me is those mirages of her that I keep on seeing
So, I, closed my eyes and slowed my breathing
No matter how hard I tried my heart just kept on beating
And now I'm hurting like I received a beating
She seems happier by just dating, at least that's what she keeps repeating
In turn she woke the monster, he was only sleeping
Now he's up and moving, and just when you thought he was leaving
He turned around, shook the ground, his smile deceiving
Only to figure out it wasn't love he was seeking.

I wouldn't neccessarily classify this as a verse
It only took me ten minutes to put this in a hearst.
But when I look back on it, I freeze up at first
Only to ignore the reasoning of why it hurts

I enjoyed this excerpts flow and the last 4 lines were sick and my fav's of the piece other than that i could feel this piece was personal but couldve gone deeper not bad just wasnt feelin youre style
peace
