My Lesson

You said you’d love me ‘till you die,

And that you’d hold me if I cry.

You promised to stay forever by my side,

That you were in it for the long ride.

But now that story has changed

You left my life completely deranged,

That’s at least what I thought,

until I realized there was something I needed to be taught-

“You weren’t all that I had,and without you, my life wouldn’t be bad.”

But you were the only love that I knew,

And I thought I would always be yours too.

There were too many broken promises,

and with hurt, you became synonymous.

I drifted away from the only ME that I knew

But that’s okay boo!

I had become someone I hated,

someone I never would’ve dated.

I lived a life I was never made for.

I was basically nothing but your personal whore.

You caused me so much pain.

I thought I would never feel again,

But I refuse to let my heart turn cold,

I have way too many stories to be told.

Stories about betrayal, and stories too crazy for a label.

So thank you for proving me wrong because now I have a passion to write my own song.
