Am I a fool?
Crying on my birthday
Waiting for you to call
Feeling overlooked
No crumbs at all
Said you needed time
Alone and no ties to hold
So no birthday wish for me
Feel left out in the cold
Turning 40, feeling a child
Not sure how to feel
Up and down hopeful then lost
Trapped in a spinning wheel
I feel hurt and sad but can’t tell you that
It’s technically not your fault
You need time and I want to give it to you
But I don’t know what to do.
Stuck between giving you what you need,
To the detriment of my own.
What I need, you can’t give me that.
So inevitably I’m alone.
