Betrayed

I want to break down
I want to give up
I don't even care what we become anymore
I should never have stuck my heart
Out on a limb
How different would it have been
If I had not let you in?
I cry for what might have been,
That seems already lost
What is the debt that all this pain has cost?
A piece of my heart is now forever gone with you
I wonder if you even feel any of this too
You invade my thoughts too often,
What can I do to prevent this occurrence?
why do i fall so easily for nice guys like you?
I don't think you even realize the charm you exude
I'm worried and I'm scared,
If you even ever cared
About the thoughts and feelings in my heart
That in them
You have so largely played a part
My heart's door is beginning to lock up
That key,
You will never possess again
Of that I will take precaution!
I didn't let myself see how much I cared
Until..you weren't there
I 'm looking back now and I'm glad it didn't work
Though it is sad,
I know now that would've only stung worse
To find out later,
After it would've been too late
Will we give it another shot?
Try to make it work?
I don't even know anymore if I want to
What if that only brings more pain?
I'm slowly pulling away
Maybe this is best
Maybe
we will never know
