Break Up To Make Up

When we would break up

Then we would make up

Just to break up again

It was a vicious circle

Like when he'd hit me

Then he'd be sorry

And he'd hit me again

Over and over again

He'd say I pushed his buttons

Or I looked at someone else

Or that someday I would

He was so insecure

He didn't realize

He was my world

It revolved around him

And only him

You see

I forgot about me

I didn't matter

As much as he

Well time passed by

Many times I cried

And I wondered why

He said he loved me

But you know

He never loved himself

So how could he love me

If you don't love yourself

And you can't trust someone

If you don't trust yourself

He said he trusted me

But he didn't

He used me

And abused me

Until I nearly died

At his hands

And then

I ran

With my life

And I ran

And I ran as fast

And as far as I could go

Then one day

He died

And I cried

This is so sad. I am glad you got away from him. I hope you are living a much happier life, now.
