I gave up

I pushed you away
Because I was in pain
I never stopped to realize
That I caused you the same

You once told me
That it's no way to live
To let people take
Until there's nothing to give

I wanted to give you
The very heart in my chest
But I've given my all
To others who have left

I want to give you closure
To show my affection
But I can't bring myself
To even look in your direction

I gave up on us
Though you tried to help
I gave up on you
Because I gave up on myself.
