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
