Reality

by Dez Johnson - Not entered

You don't want to try,
So I walk away with tears in my eyes,
I try to act happy,yeah, I'm okay,
But when you're denied, that's all you can say,
I don't want you to know that I hurt inside,
I feel like I should run and hide,
But I stand here trying to take it like I can put up with tonz of shit,
But I can't find my way out of this bottomless pit,
I know that I love you,
and I know that we can make it through,
Call it love, call it fate, or whatever,
But I can see it ain't gettin any better,
So you can go be with her and I'll wait here,
I need to take a good look in the mirror,
To see that reality just hit and you ain't comin back to me,
So I should just let you be,
and now that you have finally gone,
and I have to move on,
You can't put me through this pain,
and I know you can't break my heart again.

Reason for writing:

    Because I'm sick of gettin walked all over by guys and so I wrote this and dedicated it to my ex-boyfriend. I write what I feel and what I think.
