I can't with you

I can’t with you

I don’t want to make you happy
I don’t want to look up to you
I don’t need your approval
I don’t need anything from you
I used to abhor what you do
Now I just won’t notice you

I don’t want to be in your will
I will not be at your funeral
The water in me became ice
I don’t want to know when you pass
The ice has numbed me

I was trash to you
Now you are ash to me
You wanted to end me twice
You laughed when I was robbed
Now I am gone to you

I don’t want to think about you
I don’t want to hear from you
I don’t want to hear about you
When your time is up
You never wanted me
Because I looked like him
And now I erase you from my mind
I can clear out my soul
I can take you out of my heart
Because I will never let you be
Any part of my art
Because where I am
Is where you can never be
This is my emphatic goodbye
