The Things I Won'T Admit

As much as I hate to admit it,
Everything you are probably thinking is probably true. 
Because every day I think of you,
and the awful things you used to do.

Yet I smile, yet I laugh
yet I still give a crap
When realistically I shouldn't want anything to do
with you. 

You Cheated
You lied
You cried and you
Connived
but the more I think ill survive
the less i actually strive 
to contrive
a reason for existence

every day I see you standing there
with that Oh-So-Innocent stare
as I pass by you on my way to class

but when you don't know I'm looking
I can tell how you are really looking
sunken in, broken down
and everyday I hope you've found
 
a reason to say you are sorry
a reason to take me back
a reason to see that everyone of those other girls
lacked

but you never have
you never will
I guess its a good thing
I can lie to myself still.

You've penned something so true. The side we hide that makes us a fool. Completely normal.
