Don't. by Shannon Smith

Don't pretend
As if what we had wasn't real;
And if you're going to say anything straight to my face,
Don't lie-
Because I know you're not that kind of guy...
Maybe.
Give an effort
To see through my eyes;
Give an effort
To hold back your spies.
The spies that you sent out,
To watch every little thing I do while out and about.
Don't act like I can still trust you,
After all the hell you've put us through.
But don't act like this is goodbye-
Because if it was,
That would be a lie.
You've done some bad things,
But haven't we all?
Who cares-
Because in the end we'll fall.
But while we're still up,
There are some things to remember...
In life,
There are things that you do,
And then there are the ones
That you
Just
Don't.
