Rebound For The Reload

I think of the first guy who let me down Just as his Ex came back to town And though I can have a laugh and joke with him now I will never see him in the same light ever since that night Out of cowardice he thought it was alright After knowing me for a good part of my life To do me like he did I guess I dodged a bullet... But not for long Tell em how you really feel And they run But when you can't be direct You lose my Respect And I don't think That anyone has ever Won it back And when you can't be straight up You forfeit my Trust And I know for a fact That nobody has ever Gained that back Sometimes I wonder if anyone ever will And I don't know if this is due to my lack of understanding, or any hurt that I feel But I doubt it cause I was born to relate Tread the emPATHy But I find it winding and tiring of late But what is the other option? Hate? No, I just wasn't made for that So I seek to understand the reasoning And see if this should lead to an acceptance of the action Whether it's a justification For the jagged fragments I stand upon of all that can be shattered in a fraction cause we all make Mistakes right? My prison is a prism of insight I constantly have to negotiate One I wish I could crack But I guess if I'm Bound to the Rebound I'll always bounce back
