I waited, I got my hopes up

and set my expectations too high

only to get let down

and left alone to cry.

Being loved is imperfect.

Even though I know I'm loved

I don't feel it

and I've become used to it.

But you took me out of my shell.

My heart wanted to be with you

but you didn't want the same

and now I don't know what to do.

I believed your words

I felt loved.

Now it all hurts

and my heart bleeds.
