How can a soul recover
From this sort of hurt?
Where does this unending store
Of resilience come from?
This dissapointment is hard to get over
And still you come asking for more
You let me down before
How can you expect me
To trust you anymore
I'll let you pick me up off the floor
I'll give you another chance
But you let me down before
Please don't let me down again
Hold me close, show me your soul
And maybe I'll let you in
I warn myself, "girl, be careful
Don't let yourself fall
Because you don't know if he'll catch you"
You let me down before
How can you expect me
To trust you anymore
I'll let you pick me up off the floor
I'll give you another chance
But you let me down before
Please don't let me down again
You let me down before
I know you know you hurt me
So I walked right out that door
Trying to hide the tears
Now you want another chance
I don't think I can give you
But I don't want to let you down
I know how much it hurts
This dissapointment is hard to get over
And still you come asking for more
You let me down before
How can you expect me
To trust you anymore
I'll let you pick me up off the floor
I'll give you another chance
But you let me down before
Please don't let me down again

Nice!
I know it just sounds so damn wrong, but when I read this all I can think is "Nice". With strong sarcasm of course. It's not really guys or girls that suck, I think rather that it's the opposite party to our relationships that suck. I say that because I know how this feels, but with me it was women that were always letting me down. Anyhow, you did a great job writing this piece! The constant repetition accurately shows your wondering and lack of trust. The willingness to give him another chance shows something completely different. And of course you took your own experiences and turned them into a damn enjoyable read! Bravo!
