but tears don't fall because i'm better off this way

you want me to yell and scream and hate you
but i'm better off without you..

you think i'll beg you to come back to me
but i'm better off alone and free...

you want to come home and lay by my side
but i'm better off with nothing to hide

you want to see me hurt and scared
but i'm better off then when i cared

now do i want you back in my life
i'd be better off stabbing you with a knife...

I can relate... Relationships like this are a pain in the ass.. I mean you get broken hearted but then it is like You were better off without them in your life.... It sucks... This was a great poem...

Take care
