No tears left to cry
Baby, you left me empty.
How could you?
I’ve become a stranger in my own body.
Confused and alone;
And now everyone after you is just like you.
Domineering, entitled, chauvinistic, fraudulent
No one to repair the shatters of who I used to be,
who you used to know.
I ask about her every once and a while because
I miss her.. I wonder how she’s doing.

sometimes i feel alone — actually most times.
i have so many opinions and feelings that I hold inside of me.
i’m up, then i’m down.
i’m broken, i won’t lie
and i have seen a lot of things i should not have.
i feel like i’m all alone in this big world.
my cries to my Lord and Savior, i pray that he hears my woes;
i’m lost and in need of help.
toxicity exudes from my pores, coming from the depths of a fractured heart.
pain illuminates my eyes,
and hurt adorns my accent.
i’m programmed to repress all feelings, i’m sheltered
my opinions...

you couldn’t stand it
my ability to deny you dumbfounded you
but, what did you expect?
this was the second time you put me second
i mean, fool me once shame on you, but fool me twice shame on me, right?
rub it in my face
“you’ll probably meet her, shes apart of the team”
you just have to break my heart everytime
i can still smell you and it makes me reminisce
didn’t i say no?
“[], move”
“just one last time”
“no”
“this is the last time we can do this, because i don’t know if you know i have a girlfriend”
“[], stop”
“i’m...

Ambitious, flirtatious.
I like the way your words roll off your tongue.
I’ll feed into it because you talk sweet,
And I want a cavity.
You’ve got wandering eyes for me;
It’s okay because I checked you at the door.
You make eye contact
Because you’ve got a lot of confidence
And you’ve got a calm drip to accompany your stage presence.
You like my vibe because I’m real chill;
I’ll reel you in with my pretty smile and my hypnotizing eyes
Just enough to fully grasp your attention then I’ll cut it off
Because now I want you to chase, and...

U filled me with nothingness;
pouring your transgressions on me
because you knew, with open arms, I would accept it.
to my first love, forgive me for I knew not what I had done.
instead you have punished me every day since;
you would mark me with a scarlet letter,
then defend and shield me from the hate and pain.
to my one true love, i will continue to forgive you because you need it more than me.
and i’ll always love you because you need it more than me, too.
