Love is Impatient, Love is Unkind

Chances

I've been played so many times
that now when it happens
I'm good at pretending I'm fine.
I understand the fact that I'm the second choice
and that I'm not good enough.
It's fine.
Nobody wants me and I get it.
But please don't be shocked
when I completely stop giving you effort.
There's no way anyone can break me anymore
If I've already been broken.
