I originally wrote this in 2014, and it was  very long, with topics bouncing around. ( to be exact, 8 composition notebook pages.) I recently found it, and picked out parts I love still. My writing has improved a bit ( I hope.) so I changed a few things, but the main idea remains.

You thought everything was fine,
So did I,
And so I trusted you.
That was a mistake.
Little did I notice that all this time,
You were a fake.
You broke me,
But you can do what you want, right?
Because of all people,
You knew I wouldn't put up a fight.
I went on like I didn't care,
But on the inside I wished you were there,
Because honestly I was scared.

I wished I was invincible.
I wished you were honest.
Couldn't we have tried to make that a principle?
And now, after all of this
Let me ask you.
Can I mess with your mind,
Like you did to mine?
You know, I hope you still think of me;
That I'm your insecurity.
I learned how to change your negativity
Into motivation to push me.

You know what?
You messed me up,
More than I had ever cared to confess.
Yet here we are,
This is how you made me feel.
Love.. Hate...
For those two words,
I just don't hear the difference.
Yeah, maybe I'm delirious.
But after what you did to me,
Am I really wrong?

I remember you saw me crying.
I hope you know that those tears weren't because of you,
But because I finally realized that
You were a waste of my time.
I don't want pity.
Just know,
That what you did effected me.

For whoever is next,
Don't do to her what you did to me.
