Coward

Make your decision, and make one damn fast the clocks ticking, running out of battery and I want you in the past- if this is all make believe if it's an assumed oval take my frail, succumbed heart, again, again and stab me some more you can, you always do then you run, stand up and walk away but this time I'm not sure, sure if I can take it you threw at me your trust, and I'm beginning to question- all that should have been questioned a long long time ago. You act as if you know me and force your love onto me but if I was smart- which I'm about to be I leave, head forward, hear you running after me- except this time, no looking back no clenching your hand, no forgiving. You abused my trust, spat out those lies so unbelievable. How I could fall for someone like you? Some guy like you some coward. I tilt my hat with respect and dismiss you- and all your love and all your pity- because I'm beginning to think you pitied me and how I now pity myself your intoxicating lines deceive you and I'm certain now I don't need you I'm certain now I never had you and I beg for you to just go. Stay far away- just one wish, I don't even want the other two because you took my heart once, I dismissed it but now, you steal my heart a second and I'm now the fool the fool with her eyes swollen shut the fool who falls to easily the fool who regrets the good because the bad never ends the fool who loved you and the fool who thought maybe, just maybe, there was a chance you loved me back.
