you tell me im beautiful
a joy in your life
you tell me u care
and one day i will be a great wife
you make me feel special
like something soo rare
but
you build me up with your words
only you take them all back
you make me feel worthless
as you state all i lack
you make my heart melt
and im left feeling so bare
then
you make me appologize for all that i am
as i beg you to love me again
you smirk to your self
feeling so sly
you treat me like im special
and like you're a great guy
too you its a game,
but to me its my life
im left alone
with no one to blame
you call me months later
with an "i miss you" tone
but
when i wont be yours again
you let out a sigh
with an expression of deep pain
you look me square in the eye
you tell me you're leaving
off to iraq
but are you lieing
trying just to get me to take you back?
this is all new
i've never heard of it before
and now you're saying you may not last
if i ever want to see you again i need to do it fast
only
you say things for attention
so how can i be sure?

Some guys get eternal pleasure from promising you the world and not even giving you a river back. Still, it's a male thing in general. I loved him and he promised me he'd be there and I'd be his wife and the mother to his kids... Sure whatever that means *cries*. Beautifully written. Sorry you had to go through this yourself ce la ve.
