Because I love you


You ended up in my heart by purpose even though I didn’t let you in

This Isn’t healthy

This Isn’t  healthy.

Everyday I cry for you to leave my side

But you always end up staying

This isn’t healthy

This isn’t healthy.

Hit me

Once

Twice

Hit me why?

Because I love you

He says.

I know

Walk around thinking Is this healthy?

No it’s not, I say

Just wait a little longer, he’ll change

Screams my heart.

He doesn’t.

I deserve someone that lifts me

As high as the sky, and someone that

Doesn’t say goodbye.

This is healthy

This is healthy

I deserve someone that’s voice Is as

Gentle as the waves

And doesn’t treat me like their slave.

This Is healthy

This Is healthy

One day I’ll find a

Partner that treats

Me like this.

You should  too.
