Foolishly I believed you

I can’t believe that,
I could have been so foolish,

You said you needed me,
The words sounded so nice,
That it made me think,
It would be enough,

Seems as if you weren’t ready,
To give me what I needed,

And before I knew it,
It was too late,
I already relied on you,
I had become so dependent,

What happened to my independence?
To standing on my own two feet?
Surviving by myself?
Like I’d done before you,

I recklessly discarded everything,
That used to mean so much to me,
Just for one chance with you,

But my one chance wasn’t meant to be,
And now your gone, I sit by myself,

Contemplating how everything,
Could have gone so wrong,
In such a short time,

Somehow I make it through each day,
Each day is a little easier then the one before it,
It doesn’t hurt quite so much to breathe,

My heart is still broken into a million pieces,
But I picked them up and I’m keeping them safe,

Until I know it’s the right time,
To risk everything all over again,
And to hope I don’t get hurt,

But it still hurts when I see you,
And you look right through me,

And I will admit,
That it still hurts,
When I see you with her,

Most of all it hurts,
That I know all this,
I’m finding it easier to accept,
That there isn’t going,
To be a "we" anymore.
