Chances

How many times did I forgive you
Pretended that you didn't cheat
Forgot how badly you hurt me
I've lost count
I gave you a million second chances
But you burned through them
You used them up
I thought you loved me
I thought you cared
But every time I forgave
You ended up hurting me even more
It hurts
God it hurts so badly
"Then why did you stay?" you asked
Because I love you
I hated the idea of losing you
I didn't want to lose my best friend
But now I understand
I'd rather love you from afar
Than get hurt by you for not loving me
I'd rather cry myself to sleep
Than make you unhappy
So I truly hope you're happy
Because your happiness is all I want
You're finally free my love
Free of me
