I thought she was helping
But when I looked into it
She was taking help
But never returning it

I'd been warned
I hadn't listened
I didn't want to believe them
I wanted to love her

She was so perfect
She had so much beauty
Both inside and out
And I trusted her
But I soon realized that
She didn't want to give help
Only take it

Instead of love or help
She gave grief and pain
She only made it worse
I tried my best to be with her
She stayed with the same guys
Passing me by every day

She kept me loyal
Small gifts here and there
I tried to pass them off
But her smile was too powerful for me

It pulled me in
Wouldn't let go
I didn't want it to
She made me feel warm
And happy
And giddy
And complete again

Now, I only have one way
Back up
I plan to go up
With someone else

But what if that all changes?
What if I am left behind?
What if I am obsolete now?
What if my personality has no match?

I just have to let go of her
And just move on now
