Forgive and Forget

I want to forgive and forget it's just that I'm upset I thought it was all fine Since it was all that I could call mine Thought everyone had it like that too Later figured out that it wasn't true But I'm not mad I know you’ve probably been through worse or maybe not Didn't know how to deal with it so you just suppressed it a lot You truly love me, I know you do But the way you treat me isn't fair, making me blue Making me feel worthless Thanks to you I'm extremely nervous But don't worry I still love you I don’t blame you I just don't respect you No respect for not healing and taking it out on me, isn't that true? Was always quiet about what you’ve done Cause of you cutting myself into shreds is fun But now I want to explode Since I can't handle my emotional load My act is not out of respect But straight-up fear Trying to make you proud of me is like failing to breathe in some air I'm really not mad at you I hope the best for you I'm just done living under your ropes So don’t try to appeal to me with a rose I know its thorns will give me woes I'm just upset But it’s fine since I want to forgive and forget
