Glass

Sure, you were there when I was broken. 

Sure you were there when I was sad. 

What's your point? 


You saw me at my least and loved me then. 

You left.


 Now you only want me when I’m at my most.

 I don't regret it.

 I don't regret falling. 

Or being with you. 

I regret  I knew I deserved more and I still went for you. 

I don’t hate you. 

I never will.

 I’m just sad you turned into everything you promised you’d never be. 


You saw me. 

You met me. 

You wanted me and got me. 

That was the best part for you. 

It always is.

 You had me.

 You got bored and got something better. 

 

You left me in the dust you stirred up around me. 

I wish I could go back to the day I met you and walk away.

 Because then, I wouldn’t be as sad and broken now. 


Somehow I’m the one you can’t forget. 

You move on to try and you can’t. 

I tried and you didn’t. 


I looked at you and you looked at her. 

I let you control me.

 Lead me on. 

Rope me in. 

When you needed me you used me. 


I was always truly there. You weren’t. I’m done. Talk to me when you realize I was always there and that I cared. Come to me when you're ready to apologize.


 So have a nice life. Because your life is like glass, you always hurt people who try to step into it.

I wrote this when I got out of a relationship from a narcissist and a control freak to make it known that toxic relationships are common
