You Dont Need Me Poem by Paige Noble

I need you, you dont need me,
So why cant I just let it be?
Why cant I let you go? When I know its what you want,
Me with our friendship is always to flaunt,
But to you its a burden. Something you don't need,
As I cut myself you hate how I bleed,
Do you hate it or do you just not care?
As from the inside my heart does nothing but tear,
I tell you all these things, how you're my whole life,
But you not caring cuts me like a knife,
I say you're my everything, how i'd die for you,
Yet secretly I know you want us to be through,
If I ask you, you say its not true, deny it all,
But still deeper into this black pit I fall,
I know you dont need me, I know you dont care,
But I want it so bad its like my source of air,
Without you I know I'd end it all,
Without you by my side its impossible to stand tall,
Yet in my mind you wouldn't care if i died or not,
Yet in my mind how you've stayed with me this long is always forgot,
When you read this, don't think I hate you, I never could
Because my mind is always telling me i'm alone and misunderstood,
From everything you've said to me, you're not whats wrong,
Secretly I've known it was me all along,
I don't know how to be loved, or how to accept it,
Because in my mind you always want to split,
I know you don't, you always tell me you never would,
Because I'm always telling myself for you I'll never be good.

I know you don't hate me, you always tell me you never will
And I honestly believe you, but its like a hill,
I get to the top, just to fall back down
I'm trying so hard to straighten my frown
I promise I'll get better, I'll do whatever it takes
I'll do everything I can to fix all my mistakes.

Because you're my whole world. Its me not you
I trust you with my life, I'll stick with you like glue.
