Broken


Being honest isn’t always easy
But it gives me the satisfaction that you care about me.
However, you pour your fake emotions on me
And make me feel completely unimportant.
You break me so easily…
Almost as if you control my happiness,
I could melt in your bare hands and be broken from then on.
I am probably a waste of time to you,
But you mean more than anything to me.
Tell me how you really feel
So that I’m not killing myself trying to change my ways.
I can’t keep living for you.
Stop making me guess that you love me too.
