You gave your heart to them on an platter 

You hoped they would treat it like a delicate desert but instead they treated it like a fast food meal

Quick to devour and cheaply made

They tore into like a starving animal

Not appreciating your hidden delicacies 

Seeing only you as temporary nourishment and not a long term item to savor

You thought this time would be different

They’ll definitely appreciate your kindness and love

They did not appreciate it but they did take it for granted

They took all that you would give and left when you had nothing left

You thought, wrong guy wrong time, I’ll try again 

And again

And again

Then the final one, that last one was sure to be different

They weren’t

You became complacent and gave out of compliance and not desire

You let them use you and then you were left with nothing 

Now, here you are days later, months later, moments later 

Sitting in an empty room alone feeling used and empty

Realizing that the this was the end of your romantic relationships and beginning of your finally pursuing you.

You promise to give you the world you always deserved.
