Promised
I fell for them
Not at first
Because so many others said the same
Exact
Sentences
But slowly
Your words penetrated my walls
As if aimed at my irrational fears
But I guess I didn't understand that your promises were written in sand
And my fear of not being enough washed them away
Or that when push come to shove, people will actually leave like I say they should
Without realizing it
I fell for you
As much as I resisted
Pushed
You pulled me in
You told me you were falling
And I caught you but couldn't carry you
Yet still you promised that you'd stay
That you'd wait
That you'd
Guess it doesn't matter anymore
But you ran to him
You choose him
Him
Him
Him
You'd think I would've learned my lesson
You say all the right things
Put together and what others broke
I fall
And you go to him
It's always someone else
Now all I have left of you
Are your empty words
