A show
A bow
A curtain drawn
Heavy and soft
Breathe
in and out, in and out
The next show will start
Too soon
Tired, ready to quit
Why do I preform?
I just want to stop
Take a second
Just walk away, hit pause
Come back after a few days
Replay
I just need a break

I don't need you
To give me the world
To provide for me
To hold my hand every step

I do need
Someone to kick my ***
Tell me to pull my **** together
To look at me with that grin
To reassure me

To know they could give me everything, but won't.  
Because I can do it myself
I need to do it myself

I need you to walk beside me
Stand with me

I'm settling
For myself
For you
For us

I regret
And dam does it ****

This is more then
Just us
It's you and the other ones

And me
Me and my stupidity
