All Apologies.

I tried.

I really did. I tried making you happy, and you told me it worked. I tried wiping all your tears away, and bidding your sorrows goodbye. And you told me it worked.

I tried giving you everything you asked for, and whenever you asked for it. And you told me it worked.

So then I asked you for what I wanted. And you told me it wouldn’t work.

So I went out and did everything I possibly could, and more. Things deemed impossible. So that it would work.

But you told me it still wouldn’t.

I didn’t give up. I don’t ever give up. But there’s a limit. I’m only going to do so much, before my attention diverts. Until I deviate.

Because you weren’t the only one asking for it. Even if you would really like to think you were. There are others. Perhaps more deserving, because they don’t ask for so much. And they give back in return.

I don’t want your selfishness anymore. I’m sorry. It may hurt to realize this, but it’s true. You don’t know what you are looking for yourself. You just made me run around in circles for no apparent reason at all. And I’m sorry. I’m not destined to walk around in circles to not get anywhere. My journey is a straight path to the top. To the skies. Not around in circles to nowhere.

No one can do it any better. No one at all. I’m the only person that could make all your dreams come true. It’s true, and deep down inside, you probably know it.

No one else dares think of the impossible. And I don’t believe in the impossible.

People look up to the sky, hoping to count all the stars. I look up to the sky, hoping to one day shine brighter than them. Because their number doesn’t daze me. And you knew that.

It’s unfortunate you decided not to do anything about it. And realize, that this isn’t my fault, or my doing. You should’ve known this would happen. Like sand. I tried explaining. You just wouldn’t listen. Or would shrug it off, thinking you could hold on to me forever. But you can’t. Nothing ever can, or will.

The only way I would ever stay, is if you made me want to. But you didn’t. You only wanted me to stay, because that’s what you wanted.

What about what I wanted?

I hope you have what you wanted. It sure seems that way.

And I hope you’re happy. And know that I’m alive.

You just proved me right once again. How selfish people are, it’s true.

And therefore, I live life by just one simple rule. Which could perhaps explain why I do what I do.

I’m never going to need anyone. Everyone else whoever, will always need me.

You know who you are. And you know my name.
