The Scariest Thing.

For so long we thrived but then it just stopped
Am I no longer good enough?
For me, you fought and cared and loved
But now this situation is tough.
You said you were different and I took it as true
More fool me, I guess.
And as the days go on, my hope is fading
As you care for me less and less.
I don't know what I've done to deserve this pain
When all I did was care.
You can't even stand to talk to me anymore
And I don't see how this is fair.
We waited so long for something so short
Something so bittersweet.
And as you give one last push, I lay so quiet
In a pool of regret and defeat.
It hurts me to say that the saying is correct
A theory you all too well prove.
That there's nothing scarier than getting what you want
Because that's when you have something to lose.
