Last One For You

I love you

I do

But I think I love the man I created in my mind

Not the actual You

You are not perfect

Your words hurt me multiple times

Your "trust issues" got outta line

I choose not to look at the signs

I was hurting you and myself by continuing on

You are not the man I thought you were

You words built a prison around my mind

Scared to live the life I want

In fear that the guy I wanted

Would leave me

The gifts you got me were amazing

I'm grateful don't get me wrong

But that bracelet showed me everything that was wrong with our relationship

Beautiful on the outside

Ugly on the inside

I don't expect you to understand

I do wish that you will become a better man

Because the next girl that will be with you

Is gonna need more then Jesus when she gets through
