I failed

by Nicole   Apr 11, 2007


I had you briefly...for a moment in time i had all i wanted in the world...then as life would have it...you walked away.

things didn't work out i admit but i never stopped longing to be back with you. then i find you and her have a connection why does this seem so familiar...ah yes thats right this happened last year and you want to be with her so yeah great way to feel on my part.

maybe I'm just a fall-back for you like i am for others. maybe you played me. maybe it was just meant to be this way. all i know is that i don't like it. i don't like feeling like I'm not good enough. OK you said I'm not, bet you don't remember it either.

those I've told the tale too believe you played me. i hope they are wrong because i still love you and i wont lie it does hurt to know that I'm not up to your standards that you don't like who i am that i have to change my personality to be good enough.

but i would do anything i would change any damn thing just to please you. maybe i failed you maybe i deserve this, maybe you did play me who knows.

i don't look forward to having to discuss this to sort things out but a girl has to do what she has to...if she is to have a chance. i can only fail you so much before i succeed can't I?
