The Switch Up

This world just keeps becoming 
more & more ridiculous 
Been way past the point
of being sick of this
Every path taken 
turns into a complete disaster
Only way to get through it all
Is a borderline insane/nervous laughter
Always chasing the knowledge 
to know what comes after
Instantly fooling myself into
believing this time will
be the switch up
And ill actually be able to
smile & feel real love
Just as I start 
to let my guard down & relax
With the blink of an eye,
The chaoz comes back
Everything I was promised & told
Is treated like it was all just words 
that were spoken as a running joke
Words I was holding onto so dearly 
in my heart & soul
dissappear slowly every second 
as he gets more angry & cold
starting to see that I was 
wrong to believe 
And that all of that hope & faith 
were sadly just dreams
Never catching on that revenge 
was the game
to get back at me for the years
old mistakes that I made
past scars changed who I am today
Fighting to remember
Why i even came
The beginning was so magnetic 
Jus knew our souls were one
And that the universe had created us
To one day manifest a destiny that 
Neither of us couldve ever have dreamt of
