    you said many things
    which you believed to be true.

    ahh, to be genuine.
    do i dare
    to be just like you?

    this ego
    takes hold
    this ego
    is staring back.

    your eyes
    catch mine
    and you dont know
    what love means.
    do i pretend to?

    dont look at me
    dont talk
    dont put away my things
    when youre plastered
    all over the walls.

    see me?
    see,
    theres a world out there.
    but were all caught up
    and its too stifiling in here.

    I see you. Her price is your past, a small price to pay for another universe.

    that just oozes sarcasm, and this whole piece seems like a layered reprimand, almost gentle, but the teeth sink in deep... thoroughly enjoyable to me in my own often correlating emotions... thanks for that :)
