What I Live
how many times
must i be told
'i don't wanna relationship now'
'i just want to be real good friends'
it's like i'm eighteen all over again
don't they understand, that a friendship is a relationship
but, i get the point completely
they want to think better of themselves
like they are a true friend
in reality they just want to
take and take from me
without consequence or commitment
i never really said i wanted
someone's heart out loud
do they sense my lonliness
my need for love
or just desperation to connect
on more than a physical level
love scares me so
could i even let someone
in my heart
if i was loved
could i return that love
so tired of being shut down
i have so much more to give
disgusted with this rejection
feeling used, what i live.
