My Unrequited Love
You sold me dreams of forever,
Knowing damn well you weren’t ready,
Had me thinking we were solid,
While your intentions stayed unsteady.
Like I’m supposed to wait forever,
While you entertain whoever,
Like I ain’t been playing for keeps,
While you’ve been playing whenever.
Had me posted on the sidelines,
While you entertained your fun,
And even when the smoke cleared,
I still wasn’t the one.
Let’s be real…
You wanted good loving,
Shit, I wanted it too,
But the difference between us?
I never lied to you.
I kept that shit guttah,
Never played with your heart,
But you came with hidden motives,
And tore mine apart.
Second time you broke it,
Third time? Not a chance.
I refuse to be your fool,
In this fucked-up little dance.
I loved you with intention,
Saw a future we could share,
Called you my person,
But you were never really there.
Thought our bond was something sacred,
Thought the feelings were sincere,
But you only wanted access,
Never planned on staying here.
So fuck your forever,
That shit came never,
I won’t split what’s meant for me,
I don’t do love together.
I’m selfish with my loving,
I want mine and nothing less,
You can keep your empty promises,
And that half-assed fucking mess.
Go entertain your options,
Keep your games and your disguise,
You lost a woman playing for keeps,
While you were busy playing lies.
And when you finally realize
What you let slip through your hands,
Don’t come looking for forever
From the woman who once had plans.
