Your heart
I see it bleeding
Raw and beaten
By a lover you gave your all to
I see glimpses of what she had
And I’m jealous of the love you gave to her
Am I not worthy of your love
Your all
I give you my all in spurts but I take it back
For fear of hurting like I have before
Crawling and crying on a cold bathroom floor
Trying to understand why
Years later in retrospect I realize
It was never me, it was you
I see it in your eyes sometimes, how
You know you could love me
But you build the wall every time it starts to fall
But I fall
And fall I do
Over and over into you
Because the things that you do
Just make it all worth the pain
So here I sit once again
The other girl
The lesser one
The one who does not get all of you
And I wish I had known you before you were broken
Because I’d have loved you so hard
None of this would have been a thought in your mind
Rewind doesn’t exist in life
But give me a chance to show you what you’ve missed
