as i sit there, my palms sweaty and my head pounding, i think.

i think, think, think.

i think about every single thing you have done to me,

the lies,

the manipulation,

the tears,

the dreams,

the pain,

the days wasted,

everything.

i think about how much hurt you have caused me,

and i think about how much time i wasted on you.

staring at the clock, waiting for you to show up any minute.

because i truly believed you would show.

but once again, you didn't.

you let me down as you always did.

but the most recent time you did it,

i didn't even cry.

i didn't even have a reaction, as i was waiting for it painfully.

how, after all this shit you have put my through,

how is it that i still need you?
