Reflection
I've been broken and abused
Ripped apart and misused
But yet, somehow,
I still function.
I've found fields of sorrows
And hopeless tomorrows
Yet I still yearn to feel something
I fell deeply in love
With whom I thought was the one
Now I'm slowly realizing the mistake,
For giving my heart
And giving my all
Without asking for anything to take
I'd given my heart
I'd given my time
And I'd even given my money
I gave everything
I thought that I should
In hopes that she would still love me
But as time went on
The feelings ran out
But mine always remained present
And even when she
Would tell me she loved me
I knew that she never meant it
So I sit here today
Thousands of miles away
Thinking back to all the feelings I've felt
And how while I was caught
In trying to chase her
She was too consumed in chasing someone else
And I can't help but love her
But I can't help but hate her
The feelings just tear me apart
Part of me screams
Just get away from me
While the other one screams
Just take my heart.
I can't control
What happens next
And I can't control my fate
But I do know that in the future
I won't make the same mistakes
It isn't because the love has faded
Because I will love her forever
It's just that I've reached
a point in my life
Where I feel that I deserve better.
