quit

Circles... Everywhere. No matter where I go, no matter what I do. Like a dog chasing its own tail. Or like a firefly that just can't fly away from the light. I'm so tired of you, but at the same time, I feel like I can't live without you. I make myself so mad. You make it look so easy. It's like you toss me the smallest morsel of a bone, and I'm right back where I started. Part of me wants to get over you, to forget you, to break away. But part of me can't breathe without you, can't go one second of one day without being reminded of you. I've tried to imagine my life without you, and I feel the walls of the world closing in.

I can't quit you.

I wonder what I'm doing. I wonder why I left. I wonder what it was that I was searching for and why I can't find it 1000 miles away. I wonder why you won't follow me... and I know. Because. Because it's me.
