What kind of joke am I?... You just told me, *"I wanna be friends... But that isn't good enough for you."* *Do you not realize What you've done?* You didn't "lead me on". You made me believe in you. Convinced me we had a future together. You promised me we'd be okay. You told me I meant the world to you. You told me there was no place like my arms. That they were the most calming thing in the world. You told me your mom wouldn't be angry. You called it a speed bump... , yeah, that too. You told me it would be over soon... how early was soon? You told me your parents wouldn't come after me. That turned to ******** pretty quickly. Your last interactions with me were a kiss... You told me you'd always love me. You told me you'd always want me. *That changed a lot. You changed your stories...* Something like, "I thought he would get over me on his own. I fell out of love with him. It was obvious." "How dare you. You treated me like **** We're not okay." "If I even love you, then..." ... which became "I care about you...", you avoid the L word now. "Skyping with ***** is the best way to bring in the new year!" ...I feel so worthless now. Your mom lied to my pastor, and his wife, and you, and my grandmother about me. Is your relationship with her, a speed bump too? You lied. I actually believed you. Why don't you understand? I've been waiting for 5 months. I'll end up waiting 50 years for you, because I'm really that stupid. Your parents threatened me legally. They lied to people I love to ruin my life. You thanked them for it! How do her lips taste? You tricked me. Thanks a lot. You lied to me. You don't even use that word anymore. "care"... You lied. You don't want me anymore. Why did you lie to so much? I'm all broken now.
