Many times my heart aches and wonders why But now this constant truth keeps echoing in my mind The whole reason for every thing you did to me is clear If you can't love yourself, you can never love another You became so insecure about us About the preconception that I would leave you someday To find someone else Someone more handsome More thoughtful Someone who wasn't you That didn't have the qualities you hated about yourself In me, you couldn't get past all the things you saw wrong in yourself Even though I never said a word I could never say I wish we never met before Because you have taught me a lot But, I wish I never met the agony you caused I wished I never fell into your guilt traps Your control techniques You changed And I was blamed for it But I don't understand why I tried to preserve who you were when we first met That sweet boy who was genuine Now you are just some fraud Well, you reap what you sow Because, now, I am not yours You tried to justify our endings, to make it seem like it was my idea too But the only reason I agreed Was because I saw you were too far gone for me to try to ever love you again

The Self-Fulfilling Prophecy That Is You
Many times my heart aches and wonders why But now this constant truth keeps echoing in my mind The whole reason for every thing you did to me is clear If you can't love yourself, you can never love another You became so insecure about us About the preconception that I would leave you someday To find someone else Someone more handsome More thoughtful Someone who wasn't you That didn't have the qualities you hated about yourself In me, you couldn't get past all the things you saw wrong in yourself Even though I never said a word I could never say I wish we never met before Because you have taught me a lot But, I wish I never met the agony you caused I wished I never fell into your guilt traps Your control techniques You changed And I was blamed for it But I don't understand why I tried to preserve who you were when we first met That sweet boy who was genuine Now you are just some fraud Well, you reap what you sow Because, now, I am not yours You tried to justify our endings, to make it seem like it was my idea too But the only reason I agreed Was because I saw you were too far gone for me to try to ever love you again
