Broken Promises and Broken Hearts


Once there was a girl that cared about you more than she cared about herself. At one time you were always in this girls' head because all she wanted to do was make you proud and not mess up what we had. She wanted to be the one that made him smile everyday. Yeah guess what. She fucked oh wait I'm sorry messed it up bcause thats all she thinks now... what could she have done to make you happier? Have sex with you like you wanted me to? Sorry, she's not like that and if you reall cared to know her you would've known that and wouldn't have put her in a position where she had to say no because you of all people should have known how hard it was for her to say no. She said no despite how hard it was and you hid how upset and angry you were until one day you told her that she didn't make you happy anymore. All that runs through her head is, is it only because of two words no and stop? Is that really all it took for you to leave like you promised you never would? You thought that a girl younger than you could never say no to you or turn someone like you down. Yeah, she proved you wrong, you got mad and shattered her heart all because you couldn't respect her boundaries and she wasn't "that" way. She cried hersef to sleep because she thought she faild at what ahe tought was her job which was to make everyone happy no matter the cost and she didn't make you happy anymore. Oh I'm sorry were you expecting it to be longer? Nope, it's not because she is used to people leaving her after rpromising time and time again that they wouldn't. Guess what bud? She is a whole lot happier then she ever was after the first month with you. Don't believe her? Just because she can't be around you doesn't mean that she still loves or even likes you, that only means that she doesn't want you as a part of her life but she does. It's kind of funny that way because she can't forget about the three months that she wasted on you.
