Countless times you've declared your love,
Yet now all I feel is resentment.
Talking for us used to be a necessity,
But now it seems like you dread it more than anything.
You continue to fill my head with lies,
Saying we'll be okay in the end.
How can you expect for the lie to be hidden,
I know you better than almost anybody.
I used to look into your eyes and see they were full of a burning love,
The few instances I see them now I am greeted with dread and resentment.
You were broken so badly before I supposedly saved you,
You would say over and over how grateful you were.
There were of course occasional slip-ups,
But we stayed together and slowly got better.
Till the day you threw me away with a lie,
A lie I did not believe but I sadly trusted.
A downward spiral to eventual death is all I saw,
Till you shot me full of false hope yet again.
You held me close and healed my wounds,
I never thought I'd feel the warmth of your love again.
I actually started looking forward to waking up again,
That is till you decided breaking me once was not enough.
You grew distant and started shutting me out,
I grew depressed and confused not knowing what I did.
I guess there's no point in trying to figure it out,
Sometimes not knowing is better.
Now I sit here alone and afraid,
Waiting for the next person to come along wanting somebody to use and break.
