From Conscience to Self (Don’t you deserve better?)

Don’t you deserve someone who stays to wipe your tears after they’ve caused them?
After….
Rather than run away blinded by anger…
Don’t you deserve someone that just knows to call you when you’re upset?
Rather than you having to explicitly tell them, wait, or call them…
Don’t you deserve someone that makes you feel special?
That values you over a game
That tries a little harder
You shouldn’t have to wait in vain…
Well…. Don’t you?
Don’t you deserve someone that asks you to stay when you’re running away in fear?
That they can sense that you’re not okay and tries to draw you near?
Don’t you?
There’s someone out there that might….
How would you know?
There’s someone out there that could….
How would you know?
There’s someone out there that would….
But how would you know?
Someone out there could call you in the morning to wish you a good day
Someone out there could soothe you, so you don’t feel like you have to run away
Someone out there could meet all your expectations
But why do you keep showing so much hesitation?
They say love is blind
Others say “not prideful” and “patient”
But how long will you wait…
…and put up with same shit?
