Why I Can'T Be With You- Also, F,,, You

You wanted to know
Why I'm angry.
I don't even know how
To be angry anymore,
But as to the reasons
I can't be with you...

Because you always said sorry,
But never that you wanted
To change what you were doing-

Because you never talked to me
Since you were busy,
But it hardly seemed to matter
Because you never had 
Anything to say-

Because when you told me
That you needed me "now,"
I would call you for
As many times as it took...
When I told you I needed you,
The only facebook message 
I actually got back
Was a single word-
"Seen."

Because when you denied
That you have another girlfriend
Even when two of your cousins
Felt bad enough about it
To tell me-
I didn't believe you.
And you didn't even care
Enough to spend the time
To convince me otherwise.

Because when you told me 
That you loved me...
You never looked me
In the eyes...

Because when 
He tells me
That he loves me...
I believe him.
Maybe he's a better liar
Than you are.

Because... I just remembered
How to be angry.
