Spent my whole life wanting to give, now all I do is take. So angry I had to wait so long, I hurt the one that gives to me. He gives, and I take take take. He tries, but I won’t break. Well why should I? He knew who I was when he wanted me, now all he wishes for is change. Sure I want him to stay but I won’t beg. My mother never brought me up that way. If he gives then you get, that’s the rule of the game. Why should I lose out? It’s my turn to win now. I watched the girls hand pick the guys. I watched the guys laugh and smirk at the thought of me. Now someone wants me as much as I want him. I’ll give him all the love in the world but I won’t take the shit. If he wants money, he can get off his arse and earn. If he wants a gourmet meal he can get a damn cook book and learn. Can’t think of I time I’ve ever been happier. Can’t think of a smile that could save me from the darkest cloud. Can’t stand the thought of living without him. Can’t breathe when I think that one day I may lose my He. But I won’t give my pride.
