I’m a hypocrite

I met a boy who was willing to give me his all, He was ready to rip his own heart out for me, But mine was too busy beating for you. I thought this was a chance to move on from the tight grasp you have of me, A way to let go of this choking toxicity. I met this boy who said I was his everything, But everything he says leads back to you. I’m in a cycle of repetition, a relentless déjà vu, I’m caught in a loop, unable to break through. Break away from you. What spell did you cast? What hold did you weave? Binding my soul to yours, refusing to leave? He dreams to wrap a ring around my finger, But Im still wrapped around yours. Oh boy, I’m sorry I can’t evoke the same feelings as you. I’m trapped with my own. I understand how you feel, And I wish I didn’t. It's suffocating, this dance of contradiction, And I am a hypocrite…
