One Too Many Times...

Played

By Kele M.Published 5 years ago 1 min read

It started with one girl...

At first you did it behind my back

I forgave you and you did it in my face

It was your ex

It was your neighbours

It was your "friends"

It was my friends

It was my friend's friends and their friends

And random girls you just met...

I lost count a long time ago, but I can't seem to lose the pain each event caused

It was the times during PE

It was during breaks

It was up the stairs

It was over the phone

It was wherever I wasn't around

And because you didn't care...

It was where I was around too

I gave you love and you tried your luck with other girls

I gave you trust and you lied to be with other girls

I gave you care and you comforted other girls

I gave you respect and you talked down on me to other girls

I gave you me and you cheated on me

All because you couldn't love me...

Yet as selfish as you are... You didn't want to leave me either.

I waited for an apology

No, not the lies you give me over texts after you have been caught

I waited for change

No, not the kind you claim while you still busy with other people

I waited for loyalty

No, not the kind you give when I am around and lose when I am not

I waited for love...

And now I am leaving.
