I have poured out my love,
yet you never seem full.
I have shown much care,
yet you still couldn't see.
I have always been with you,
yet you still say you're all alone.
I have fought for you,
yet the battle seems unending.

And there I was feeling empty,
defeated, and unloved,
as I have been watering a dead plant.

So I decided to walk away,
and there I realized and saw
I am meant for so much more,
that there is a lot in this world and that it is so big,
than to settle for the crumbs of love
you find so hard to give.
