Once I Wanted Everything

I expect nothing from you.

Nothing.

Once I wanted everything,

But no more.

 

I never expected you

To say you love me.

I never expected you

To lie for me.

I didn't expect

A huge bunch of roses.

I didn't expect

Hours with you on the phone.

 

I just wanted you

To hold me in your arms

And maybe to hear you say

That you really care.

 

But now I expect nothing from you.

Nothing.

I once wanted everything

But I realise I was just you w***e...
