Not Demi-Gods

this tough road that you've chosen
is leading you further away
from us and closer to
brutality.

you've become a somebody even
i stopped wanting to know
and our love seems like
one big, dirty mistake.

do you know?
i speak of you like
you're a borrowed love
and i think of you like the way
i reminisce school days -
a mixture of shame and warmth.

and i wish i didn't have to look back
and see us like that,
i wish you had taken the human road
to life.
