I never meant to be mean

Despite our differences

All I wanted

Was to make it right

To make you understand the depth of my feelings.


You kept on saying and swearing that you weren’t seeing anyone else

When the real question I was asking was if I ever had your heart

You kept on saying you cared for me

When all I wanted was for you to prove it.



And I, who always felt the words comforting

Found myself struggling with yours,

Not understanding all the sentences that kept coming from your mouth

Because my entire being was focusing on one simple sentence:

He is a liar.



You said I don’t have to make any effort from now on

But how can you be trusted

When you made me hope for so much

Yet gave me so little.
