Some people have the unfortunate reality of putting effort into people and getting nothing back and it's not exactly a "good time" emotion. In fact, it kinda hurts, a lot; especially when you're made to feel like there's a possibility they do care. This is a poem I wrote on that:
Wasted Time
I don't hate you.
I hate the fact that I wasted so much time on you
It was never about making you feel something
Or even giving me a chance
It's the fact that all you had to say was no...
And you didn't...
Making me feel like I was worth something in your eyes
When really
You didn't care if you ever spoke to me again
And for what
To feel valued?
To feel some glimmer of hope that someone you want to might care?
You love saying no one cares about you
Raving about how people dislike you just because of your appearance…
Ignoring people that loved you not just for that
But also who you were aside from it all.
And no matter what I did
You showed me every effort
Was pointless
And I was the fragile glass that fell for you
Hoping to be caught
But busted on the ground
No wonder I feel all over the place
