you did nothing wrong
you are amazing
i just don’t want to be
in a relationship right now
i was the common denominator
fool me once - shame on you
fool me twice - shame on me
get broken up with for the same reason
four times - it’s a ******* pattern
how do I explain to someone new
that I am running out of pieces
of myself to give away
that i’ve stopped saving phone numbers in my phone until somebody proves
that they’re going to stay
that I don’t even know how to talk about myself
because the things that
make me - me
were the reasons
why everyone else left
that i haven’t figured out
what I’m doing wrong
and my track record
makes me not want to try
how do you tell someone new...
that you already know
they aren’t going to stay
