Take it Back
I take back my tears
Because wanting what could be will never be
I take back my dreams
Because wanting you gets me nowhere
I take back my hopes
Because my future is as desolate as your stare
I take back my prayers
Because you are certainly nothing to pray for
I take back my wishes
Because all of my wishes for you are in vain
I take back the what is left of my heart
Because you saw that I gave myself to you, completely and forever
I take back my hard work
Because you will never appreciate it
I take back my honesty
Because you taught me how much the truth is worth
I take back my trust
Because I have been betrayed one too many times
I take back my words
Because your heaviness weighs on my chest
I take back my thoughts
Because they were far too innocent for your intentions
I take back my time
Because you only care to waste it on yourself
I take back my body
Because you don't deserve it
