ImThatGirl Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 You told me I could count on you Your promises and actions made me believe I listened and now you have determined That my dependency on you is all you can see You told me you loved my strength That my positive nature caught your eye Yet through constant critical words I become weaker as time passes by You told me that you were here to stay That your goals were the same as mine You told me that our plans would never fray Through all of the whispers, I become blind You told me that you understood my insecurities But with you I didn't need my guards I hesitated but let them all down For the first time in awhile, I gave my heart away You told me you could see a future And quickly swept my childrens hearts away Yet as the future becomes the present I realize it's not only me but also them that will pay You told me it's not all about me I questioned myself and agreed that it's not Emotionally it hurt like the sting of a bee Little notes and lessons in my notepad I would jot So I could be who I needed to be You didn't tell me that you may be lying Not only to me but also to yourself You didn't tell me that you were hurting That you didn't have the strength To make promises of forever Now – Now I sit here at a loss I bounce back from feeling strong then weak I feel more alone now than ever And you haven't even had the decency to speak The truth – that the ties you may sever Now – Now I sit here and analyze The changes that happened so quickly You're no longer excited to see me But you refuse to admit that you are having second thoughts You write it off as my insecurities Could you please just tell me what direction Remember, I am no longer strong and I can't see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
