This is it

Why? Is the question that I ask when I allow you to come back again,

I give you chance after chance yet you still play with my head.

My heart, you have teared down and torn apart,

I’m trying to put the pieces back together but don’t know where to start.

Even after knowing the things you do,

I can’t find the strength to walk away from you.

I feel my heart begin to burst and bleed,

Each and every time I turn around to leave.

I can’t let go.

 

Instead of leaving, I stay and put up with the heartache.

You’ve become a stumbling block I can’t get over.

I accept your lies, hurt, and pain,

All in hopes you’ll someday change.

Hope? I’m losing it day by day, knowing that you’ll always stay the same.

Even with knowing you’re a foe,

I just can’t seem to ever let go.

 

If only you would give me something worth holding on to,

I’d promise and guarantee to always be true.

But you’re just the type that cannot commit,

So today I take a stance and say THIS IS IT!!!!
