Distance

Finding X in My Equation

"And because she had turned her back and left me,

I stayed back & prepared for a comeback.

So even with her head start, I could never slack.

But let's pretend this episode was going to kill me,

I sure wasn't going to down without a fight"

That was the end of my story writing ...

So I turned to a blank page

Then my teacher says "Make EX the subject matter"

The reason I always failed math

Because my EX never intended to stay

He didn't want to ever be found

To him, solving a problem was never worth it

Which = To the distance between Him and I

If I knew, I should have warned myself of a reoccurring equation
