I just don't show it. I just can't let you know. I'm too afraid you'd pull away if you'll know I'm this difficult. But...
I felt abandoned. --- for you have stopped talking to me.
I felt taken for granted. --- for you stopped making me feel special.
I feel like my presence or absence doesn't count. --- for you doesn't show concern.
I feel like you don't need me, anymore. --- for you are still happy without me.
I felt worthless.
I felt unappreciated.
But most of all,
I felt sorry for myself.
--for I have let you consume me.
--for I have made you the center of my world.
--for putting you first above all else.
--for loving you more than you deserve.
