You say you know me well,
better than anyone else
yet you fail to register the hurt behind my eyes.
You say you care about me
more than anyone ever did
yet your words are the reason I cry most nights.
You say you are always by my side
even more when there's no one left to confide
yet you leave even before I could beg you to stay.
You say I am the only one that matters,
rest everyone else comes after
yet again you fail to understand me.
It's not your words but the paradoxical nature of your actions that shatter me.
How can the only person I love come around only to hate me?
