Game on
I really thought you had my best interest at heart.
Now I see, you were just playing the part.
Never thought all you saw
was a game to try and beat.
Never actually attempting
to get to know me.
All you needed to know
was that I aim to please.
And that I've searched my entire life
to find a love I could keep.
Convinced you were so true,
I didn't catch that high horse seat.
Because you were kneeling down on it
so i could almost reach
Swore it was prayers you wanted to teach.
But you just wanted to get me down on my knees.
Said you loved watching me while I sleep
Because it was the only time i looked at peace-
but it was more so just to be a creep
I wasn't able to cry or scream
From the violence in my dreams
Flashbacks of what was done to me
in my traumatic past,
said you kinda wondered-
But not enough to ask
