Breaking Up

It's very hard to do.

Why did he do it?

When you meet someone, day or night

Everything clicks and seems all right

But there's just one thing that you're not aware.

I'm starting to think that he might not care.

I ponder if he wants something else,

So much so you're sick of yourself.

But but when he goes to ask you out,

You wonder what is this relationship about?

Then you ask yourself how long you'll last.

We got into this way too fast

All of the answers I cannot find

Thinking that he'll change his mind

Paranoia that he just might

What's different now than from that night?

You find yourself getting curious

Wondering if he's even serious

It has been three weeks since you have met.

You tell him to stop by and then he 'forgets.'

Another week passes he hasn't come by.

Then you just sit there wondering and cry.

You finally decide you had enough

You call his phone but then he hangs up.

He did not sound the least bit enthused.

You try and tell him that you feel abused.

Knowing he knows he's guilty of abuse.

Instead he comes up with some lame excuse.

You try very hard not to complain.

But when it all comes down to it you're going insane.

You ask of his wellbeing and he says

he is fine.

His excuse for not visiting is that does not have time.

You would think that after all of the moments that have shared.

You'd think he'd take time off to show that he cares.

Has he lost interest I'm really not sure.

I'm not really sure what to think anymore.

You convince yourself it could be worse.

Just for him to say let's not see each other anymore.

You think that was that it was pretty low.

But then of course he had to go .

You sit there thinking how much you were depressed

You sit in your room saying that you should've guessed

She still has the memories but she'll miss all the fun

Her association with him is done.

Why did he do it I will never know

I know it's not me it's him and it shows

You hope that maybe you'll still be friends but he does not wants the same.

But I guess that is how things go, isn't it a shame?
