(Un)Deserved

(Un)Deserved

Always late for dinner,
Excuses running rampant,
Lying through your teeth,
I deserve better,

Instigating arguments,
Blowing out-of-proportion,
Enjoying the drama,
I deserve better,

Vagueness a regularity,
Openness scarce,
Forced conclusions via speculation,
I deserve better,

Double standards aplenty,
Mind games as well,
Manipulation tactics prevalent,
I deserve better,

Using me for my kindness,
Using me for my generosity,
With a lack of appreciation displayed,
Reciprocation a rarity,

My confidence begins to wane,
Due to your constant negativity,
Having to repeat to myself time and again,
You don’t deserve me.
