Conditional

Folder: 
Nov. 07

You never listned, you never cared

Most of all, You were never there

Only showed care when you were pleased

But if I missed up you acted as if I were diseased

Do you know what it is like to only be loved conditionally

Only when I made you proud

But never at any other time

For a long time I felt hated

So alone, so lost and jaded

I felt that I was not good enough for you

So I would never be good enough for anyone else

Do you know how many times I ran far from love

For fear of getting hurt or not being enough

But now I know what love is and is not

and I know how to really love

because I do not want to treat those I love like you did

You never listened, but I will

You never cared, but I promise those I love

That I will always be there
