"Don't look me in the eyes when you do that"

"Don't look me in the eyes when you do that"

'Well, I hope that your happy'
where her last words
as I walked out the door on another person I had won
Relationships are games, hearts for the conquering
maybe I say that because I lose at the games I really seem to care about
or maybe if I had won those games I would say the exact same thing
Im thinking I would.
Im thinking I dont care if its better then nihilism or not, I dont believe in love
I hate the sound of love, the feeling of love, the idea of love
I dont want to be vulnerable to anyone
I wish they couldnt see inside
love eventually leads to nothing but a cynical heart, a jaded heart, and a calloused cock
because as soon as Ive let on that I care
she knows that she has me already
and this is the tenth time with the tenth girl
so I already know what is going to happen
I will, for the next month or so run uphill at full speed
occasionally make it to the top, only to fall down the other side
and start over again
finally giving up, take on an easy tread thats familiar and safe
Then see another mountain in the distance I feel I must conquered
and
'well I hope your happy'
will be her last words
as I hang up the phone on another defeated lover
and for years to come I will pray that none of them see me
because Im not fucking happy
