Usually I feel stronger, a pride that comes with knowing I was right. But this time it's a little different because I am walking away, exhausted from the fight. I don't know what to think of you, but I know how you make me feel; so frustrated and so unsure, always questioning what's real.
I can't believe that I cried for you, I shed tears which I said I'd never do. I can't believe I ever fought myself to trust that that man you showed me was true. I can't help but feel sick for the faith that I tried to have in you; all the while my heart was keen, there was a part of me that somehow knew.
I saw the way that you smiled at me and I heard the words that you wanted me to believe, but there was a struggle that lied within me, so deep, protecting me from your deceit. For now I will sit and contemplate the motions, looking at now in disbelief, but understand that with time these eyes will dry, allowing me to better see.
