Unwanted

It started out looking good

cause we both saw the sparks.

We were inseparable.

You stole my heart.

I stole yours too,

I was in love with you.

 

And I still am

but your feelings have changed.

Maybe to you it was just a fun game.

You played with my heart

when you loved someone else.

Now I am eternally scarred

and seeing you doesn't help.

It makes my wound open

right after it's closed.

Are you oblivious to my hurt,

or is your heart just cold.

You make me feel unwanted

I don't know what to do.

I hate how I can't

stop loving you.

And day after day, it is always the same.

I forgive you again, and again, and again.

When you have no one else, we are buddy buddy.

You laugh at my jokes and tell me I'm funny.

When you're with another friend

it's like I don't exist.

I keep drowning deeper,

I feel so helpless.

You make me feel unwanted

and I feel so alone.

You're the reason I crawl into a corner

and cry at home.

Yet I can't help myself,

I keep going back .

As soon as I feel happy,

you decide to attack.

I wish I would learn my lesson,

wish I could just forget.

I wish you didn't make me

do things I regret.

I hate feeling unwanted

I'm so self-conscious now.

I don't know when someone wants me around.

This feeling of being unwanted

it has become too real.

It has become so normal

I wish I didn't know how to feel.
