Come Back for More

You say one thing and then say another
You did neither but you'll say you did
All this lying still leaves me crying
I walk out that door
But I come back for more
You wanted one thing  
And one thing only
I was desperate and very lonely
I knew how it was going in
The water was over my head
And I couldn't swim
You tossed me a life raft
And then pushed me under
And I still wonder
Did you ever care?
You said you'd be there
Or was it just for fun?
I should've run
I gave in
I let you win
Am I masochistic?
If not that then what is it?
I do this every time
to get hurt I'm first in line
But I still came back for more
I still come back for more

thanks...it was written when I had a boyfriend that I knew had someone else, but I kept seeing him anyway...I even did some stuff I regret....He even proposed to the other chick after he told me he was gonna break up with her...and that was very painful...but I still didn't break up with him...I still came back for more...

WOW..I wrote something  long ago (one of my first 20 poems) about  coming back for more..12*98  

BACK FOR MORE...

Doesn't it make you wonder,
how relationships occur,
when you are just on here and chatting,
and it all becomes a blurr?
It's up and down and back and forth,
and takes you for a spin.
Can't tell sometimes, if you're coming or going,
if you're out or if you're in.
There's only one thing that you can feel,
no matter what takes place.
You've fallen for this person,
without even seeing their face!
This could be just a game being played.
You can't really know for sure.
But every day you come again,
and even look for more.
At times they'll give you what you want,
The attention is all yours.
And then the next time you're on line,
they're shutting all the doors.
What makes us do this to ourselves?
And does it have to be...
never knowing for a second,
if you really care for me?
What do we want...those of us on here?
Are we looking for more than a "friend"?
Or are we "lost" and hoping for
our loneliness to end?

DarkStar, this is very very sad and beautiful, I can feel your pain.
I hope that it's over already, this experience...

I haven't spoken to him in months but the really stupid thing is, I still love him...he was never really good to me...but I still do. He was the one who stopped talking to me. I'll be ok eventually...I think...
