Now I See

You told me I could depend on you
Now I see how undependable you are

You told me I could trust you
Now I see how untrustworthy you are

You told me you would always be there
Now I see I am truly alone

You told me that you wanted me
Now I see that meant only when I was convenient

You told me that I’d see you again
Now I see you are nowhere to be found

You told me that you would protect me
Now I see how vulnerable I am

You told me that I was special to you
Now I see how common I really am

You told me I was valuable to you
Now I see how little you valued me

You told me I could believe your promises
Now I see what your promises are worth
