apologies

simple apologies that you made but didn't mean
in the end it's the little things that get to me
i guess it took me long enough to realize
that when you said you wouldn't hurt me the smile didn't reach your eyes
i thought maybe if i said i was okay it would make it true
but if it were, wouldn't I be able to trust someone new?
instead the nights just get colder, and the days get longer
the bitch of it is that i feel like this killed me instead of making me stronger
