No More "Us"


Back, oh so long ago,
When I told you "I love you,"
It was you and only you that I loved.
Then, every once in a wile,
A different girl came out.
One that I didn't like.

She did things that I didn't like.
Went behind my back,
Talked to my friends about things.
Things that she knew she shouldn't.
Then, went through things that
     Were personal to me.
Through things that she had before.
This time, it was different.

It was that straw that broke the camels back!
You had done it before,
And promised to not do it again.
I forgave you.
Then you did it again!
"I promise to not do it again,"
Is what you told me.
I forgave you. Again.
Then you did it a third time.
This time, I didn't forgive you!

You begged me to reconsider.
I held my ground.
You continued to ask forgiveness.
I gave in and told you that I need time.
Time to think about when I would be ready.
You continued to pick at me.
Pick and pick and pick!
I told you to stop.
You didn't.
I walked away. Gone.
Not coming back! EVER!

See what happens when you don't listen?
I was going against my better judgment.
I was told never to talk to you or even
     Think about you!
I couldn't help it! I love you!
I'm in love with you!
You just pushed too hard.
You had even told me.
If I had done that to you,
You would have been gone the first time!
I gave you three tries and still!
You still couldn't get it straight!

I tried to cool down and give it another chance.
You couldn't wait even twenty-four hours!
I wanted to try to make it work.
I just needed my time and space.
You couldn't even give me that!
How do you expect to give me love,
When you can't even give me
     Twenty-four hours!!

Move on with your life.
You know you want to.
You need to! You have to!
There is no more "us".
