They always say
Everything comes in threes.
You get it on the third try.
"Three times a charm"
I.
He made me appreciate myself.
See things in a new light.
Treated me like I mattered.
Like I was the only one in his eyes.
But he stopped coming around.
Became more distant.
Fucked with my head.
Making me think he was interested.
II.
I'd known him for months.
Always thought he was nice.
Saw him every day
Talked on the phone every night.
Instead of talking it out,
He'd just ignore me.
Taught me to not care,
Guess he was bored with me.
III.
He had the best smile.
Always made me laugh.
He was one of my first friends
In a new place, a new class.
I think he hurt the most.
Because I'd known him for so long.
Suddenly the messages stopped.
Didn't even know what I'd done wrong.
They always tell me
They mean know harm.
But I've learned my lesson.
