Unwanted
The difference now
From before
This was unwanted
I laid bleeding on the floor
I try not to think
Of that dreadful night
The night I let someone lie
I let him come inside
I let him tear me apart
Limb from limb
I let him leave me there
Staring off to no where
Wishing it would all end
This chapter of my life
It started a few months back
I remember it like it was yesterday
He lied his way into my life
That should have thrown up a red flag
But I listened to everyone else
I let down my guard and invited him in
I started to believe I needed new friends
I started to think it would help
We talked on the phone
About nothing at all
I mostly listened as he would rant
He hated his life
The people inside of his walls
He needed new friends
He told me again and again
Always felt so alone
