I thought you were that thing
That thing that kept me going.
I was so blind!!!
Why do I still want your love?
When you are my pain
My anger, my sadness.
I can’t believe I didn’t see
The way you treated me.
Or maybe I just didn’t want to know
What an awful person you could be.

Did you always plan to destroy me?
By saying you
Loved, wanted and needed me.
You make it like a game.
Seeing if you could make me love you.
Now its clear
Ill never make that mistake again
Believing anyone could ever love me.

But don’t worry
If you cant already see
Yes you won your game.

No matter how hard I try
I just can’t seem to be strong enough
Strong enough to stop loving you
You probley can’t see
How much you have affected me
But I will get over it
And maybe one day secede.
