Happens over and over again,
which I keep saying it's okay,
when, in reality, I feel astray.
I feel bad for making them feel bad,
so I reassure them all the time,
but honestly I'm not mad, just a bit sad.
Little things they do and they apologize for it, then I say, "it's okay don't worry about it."
I feel sort of as a pushover sometimes,
but if I express how I feel,
the friendship might be over I often feared.
Rather friendship or an actual relationship with one, I tend to be to forgiving,
which can sometimes be taken advantage of.
If it's gone too far, I'll speak my mind
but sometimes I stay in the dark,
to keep them in my life.
I always believed that if they changed,
to give them the chance,
but if they're still the same,
leave and don't look back with a glance.
Though I've been taking advantage of in so many friendships,
where I had stop with the second chances.
I try to be as understanding as I can, but there are some situations where I can't comprehend.
I'll understand and be forgiving,
just explain, it's that easy,
but please, don't hurt my feelings.
