Loved who more

I spent hours Waiting for a second Of your time. You spent seconds Wasting hours of mine. You only gave me attention Because I kept coming back. When I finally left, You knew what to say To get me to take you back. If you asked me now Who loved whom more, There are two answers. The first: I loved you more Than you could ever comprehend. I gave my all In return for nothing, Not even love. The second: You loved me more Because you saw a change. You knew the same tricks Would never work again. You loved me more Because you feared I would leave.
