I could write so many mean things about you,
But the bad thing about it
Is that I still love you
Just thinking about all the good and bad we been through
It always seems to make me cry
Because my heart feels likes it’s in the middle of the ocean
Trying to float to stay alive.
I hate loving you because it was you that broke my heart.
You started to play the game
And just knew it would tear me apart,
But there’s something about you
That I can’t seem to let go
Just the way you cried in front of me
You kind of showed that you were a man on the inside,
But a worthless nigga on the outside.
I loved you with half of my heart
And you still manage to make me want to die
You just don’t get it
I would have done just about anything
To make you stay by my side,
But later throughout time
I figured I was only your sex dime
Because you only called me when you wanted me on my back.
Never called to say hi or even text back.
Who waited for you when you was put in jail?
It was me!
The one who thought she was your girl!
Twenty three damn days!
Almost a month
I spent writing poems about you,
Daydreaming about everything that went through
And this is what you do.
Cheat on me!
And you was ignorant to take me for a fool.
Thinking that just because I was seventeen
I wasn’t going to let you go.
I loved you so much and I didn’t have a problem as it showed,
But I admit I didn’t want to be alone
And stayed with you while you had sex with me
And some other dime.
Then it was time to let you go
Because the way I pictured it
I wanted a man
Not a hoe.

I definately feel the same. Like I could write so many mean things about him, but to my heart they could never be true as he's so special to me... Bleh, it's stupid but that's what love does to you.

Wow that was hard, I liked that one, that's what happens when women don't make us wait. I loved the ending mostly though.
