Welcome to Reality

 

You told me to give you a chance, and I did.

You told me you would never hurt me, and you did.

You told me to let myself fall, that you would catch me, but you didn’t.

 

What did you think was going on?

Did you think all of it was a joke?

Was that all it was to you?

 

Some here, some there.

Who cares if anyone gets hurt in the process,

As long as you get what you need.

Please tell me I’m wrong.

 

If you thought that I was a waste of your time,

I apologize.

I wish I could say I wasted my time on you.

I wish I could lie to myself and say that I didn’t care for you.

 

I never lied to you

But I'd be lying if I said that you never did. 

 

I never was fake with you.

Turns out you refused to do the same.

 

Did you even love me like you said you did?

Do you know what being compassionate is?

 

You sure are good at pretending, 

did your papa teach you how to play people?

 

Do you do this to all the girls?

 

I hope I was the last.

I hope I wasn’t the first.

 

I let myself fall.

I let myself f*****g fall for you.

 

And then you promised me. 

You f*****g promised me.

Forget to lift out your arms? 

Or was that your decision?

You let me fall

You knew I would.

 

You even helped push me off that cliff.

And then you had the nerve to smile at me the whole way down.

 

What have you done?

 

What have I done?

 

“You can’t break that which isn’t yours.”

 

You broke my heart.

 

And then you stole my stitches.

Why are you doing this to me?

 

What have I done to myself?

 

You’re making me hate the way I am.

 

This is what you do to me.

 

This is why you’re confused.

 

You say you just don’t feel the same anymore.

 

Did you ever even feel the same back?

 

Was it all a scam?

 

Remember your words.

 

“Do you still think I’m playing you?”

 

The idiot I am, I answered no.

 

And you smiled,

Just like the idiot you are.

 

I left everything for you.

I gave everything for you.

 

I risked so many things.

I put myself past my comfort range for you.

 

Is this my fault

Or yours?

 

If you left me for her,

Couldn’t you have just told me?

 

Couldn’t you have told me,

Saved me the trouble of finding out through others?

 

And if it’s not true,

Then why do all the hints point in that direction?

 

If it’s not true,

Then what happened to us?

 

And if I did nothing wrong,

Then why did you leave?
