i will not
i refuse
to fight for your attention.
if you want her and i
then choose her
because i will not be a second choice.
don't believe for one minute that this does not pain me
because it does.
i've been here before
and that is why i must leave before this tears me apart more than it already has.
you simply cannot tell me you have feelings for me
and then continue to see her every other night.
sorry honey
it doesnt work like that.
at least not when you're talking to a girl that knows her own self worth.
do you say the same things to her?
silly boy
you must not know
that i know how boys like you work.
you recycle your words and affection
that does not make me feel special
so do not tell me that i am special.
i know that i am
but you are not treating me that way.
your act is getting old
and it is time for me to leave.
