I didn't want to be that girl

I never wanted hate myself
I never wanted to feel cheap
I never wanted to feel worthless 
I never wanted to be broken.

You made me hate myself
for all the flaws
that you pointed out.

You made me feel cheap
for all the ways you Treated me.
To you I was just a bank. 
For all the food truck and fast food dates
For all the times you just left me there
by myself.

You made me feel worthless
by never calling to tell me that you missed me 
or ignoring my calls and texts. 
You put me down 
with the things i was really insecure about.

You made me feel broken
by always putting the blame on me 
for every fight we had.
For telling me that you could do better
and that I was lucky to be with you.
But the thing that broke me the most,
when you said "you don't have to worry about her."
