Heartless

Maybe I don't have the heart

To say the things I need to say

I was scared to hurt you

But you know what,

Payback is hell...

You may not know it,

but you hurt me worse than anyone.

Empty promises,

broken words,

what did you think?

Did you really think I was dumb enough,

to never find out?

I tried, I really did

I continued on like nothing was wrong...

Three strikes, you're out!

God knows that I wanted it to work

I wanted everything to be peachy keen

I wanted life to be normal again

How friggin impossible is that for you?

I am old enough to know

that games are something

kids play!

I've never been this honest with someone,

but I'm finally not scared.

I'm done being hurt

I'm done being your doormat

and most of all,

I'm done being Mrs. Nice Girl!

As much as this may hurt you,

I still want things to work.

Broken friendships are like

broken hearts,

They take time to mend.

Yes you hurt me,

but I'm not as heartless as you think.

I'm willing to forgive,

but only if you're willing

to be honest,

to be trustworthy,

to never lie again,

and most of all,

to be a true friend.
