Rejection

That stab of pain
it makes me so cold
I got all worked up
for you just to say no
I feel so tired
and I just want to sleep
but I'm not hurt that bad
I won't cry or weep
I wish you'd say yes
and get to know me
like I want to know you
but I'll just let it be
I guess I can take it
it's been worse you know
but that don't mean it's easy
to just let you go
I'd turn back time
if I knew how you felt
but I know that I can't
I'll play the cards I've been dealt
I'll find someone else
eventually
someone I'll love
who will also love me.

This is really hard to read because it sounds so painful. Good work...
