Why

When things fell apart You picked me up When I fell apart You stood by me When i couldn't see my abilities You pointed your ways When i gave up You showed me the way My question is why? Why did you take your time To save my time? What was precious about me that You could not leave me alone? I hurt you more than they hurt me I left you in the dark And you had no one to light for you I left you for Him And you waited for me We both know we cant be Why? I am breaking you apart And i cant do anything for you I have too much love But for some reason I keep giving it away to wrong people Knowing that you wait in line for it I am sorry for crushing your heart For breaking every single hope you Have had to pieces I am sorry that your plot is fluctuating I am sorry that you have unwillingly Called me a fool I am sorry that you went to bed with a broken heart At times because of me I am sorry that you cursed my love at some point I wish you would swallow your love for me I wish you pack it and give it away to her, desiring it I hate seeing your look, each time I tell you its me and him time And we both know, i come back to lie in your chest and cry To feel its warmth and smile I use you and you know it Even though you are warm and gentle He is cold and rough and yet i want him Even though i quench his thirst I am not enough for him But for you i seem to be enough Why do you do this to yourself?
