Nothing

i was a nothing 
i believed everything i heard
no matter how cryptic his words
he perfected it though
ill give him that
the sweet talk, the act
ill give him credit for that
i let him under my skin
i pushed to continue again and again
although i knew it was a lost cause 
i was a nobody, a person to be replaced and tossed
i learned my lesson though 
once was enough
not again, i'm cool with being just friends
