Because I love(d) you...


Because I love(d) you

I said we could be

Friends with benefits, and did nothing I see

to out of the ordinary.

But you spent more time with him,

and less time with me

You only came to make-out, with no time to speak

Because I love(d) you

I tolerated it with gall

Until you suggested not visitng me at all

I realized you didn't and don't love me, I was so appalled.

So now we are friends with no benefits at all.
