Something Simple

I have trust issues.
That is my "Something Simple",
Short sweet and too the point.
I don't like the fact I don't trust people,
But that's what happens,
When you dedicate 4 fucking years,
To someone who you thought you could trust.

I use to be able to look at someone,
And think, "I like him/her.
They seem like a good person."
And then your "girlfriend" betrays you.
Fucks them and hurts you.
Lies to your face,
And threatens to cut off your dick if you cheat.

She's a fucking hypocrite.
And it's because of her that I don't trust people.
She went behind my back time and time again,
Using me and destroying my sense of self.
I want to be able to look at someone,
And think, "That person seems nice."
Instead of, "They will hurt me..."

I could of moved on multiple times,
But every time I did,
She was always there to ruin everything.
And then I was her pawn once again.
And even now,
When I try to move on,
I can't bring myself to do it.

I see a cute girl on the street.
I freeze and back away.
A nice girl that walks into my store,
I get someone else to talk to her.
Because in my mind,
It will always end the same,
She will hurt and cheat on me.

I want something simple,
Someone to love me back,
But my insecurities stop me,
And no matter what I do,
I will always think this way.
But why should you care?
All I am to you is words on a screen.

Simple words from a simple person,
Who complains about his love life.
But maybe that is what I need.
To vent my emotions,
And tell you what's wrong with me.
And even if you don't care,
Out of the thousands of people...

One person will care,
And tell me that it is alright,
Tell me that I will get over this.
And I might believe you.
But until then,
I won't...
My "Something Simple" won't let me.
