burnt out, done

he said he loved me as he searched on his phone for a trick to play with

me sitting on the side wanting him

The anger swelled as I waited for the affection he gave strangers

He asked me to change I asked for some attention

while I gave in he fucked around behind my back

I couldn't take having  my heart ripped out on a daily basis

then returned stepped on, tarnished

My happiness didn't matter

got tired of fighting a fight I wouldn't win

I grew some balls, hardened my heart 

and before I left I tore him apart
