Why do I let you
Take control of me
With your glimmering smile
And meaningless words?
Why do I let you
Continue to beat me
With your thoughts,
Words, and fists?
Why do I let you
Lead me on
To fall in love with you
When you won't love me back?
Why do I let you
Break my heart
Rip into thousands of pieces
When you don't even care?
Why do I let you
Be trusted in the first place
Knowing it'd end badly
But going with it anyways?
Why do I let myself
Carry this burden
Of you, your pain,
And the heartache with it?
