A/N: my muse has made me write this. I can't refuse my muse, especially after what happened to my last one. Bows head in respect

I've never felt this way before.

That feeling of helplessness, betrayal, hurt, and love all at once.

I won't call it an unpleasant feeling, but it's definitely not making me feel all warm and fuzzy inside either.

I feel helpless because he told me he would be there if I needed him, but he's not.

Betrayed, because he broke a promise.

Hurt, that he went to her first.

But love because I know that'll he get here sooner or later.

I'm hoping for the former.

I know it's on your heart
That a love like ours shall never fall apart
You're so afraid of the rain
So I'll take your hand
And I'll love you in the best way that I can
And I only expect the same

Why do I have to feel this way?

I can't stop loving him. I won't.

And yet, I feel that it must end now, before it gets out of hand.

But it can't...can it?

Because love doesn't work that way.

My mom told me once that once you fall in love, you could never truly fall back out of it.

I'm starting to get what she was talking about.

Don't promise me forever
Don't promise me the sun and sky
Don't pretend to know you'll never make me cry
Just hold me now
And promise me you'll try

I want him to hold me.

And I want him to love me like I love him.

But I won't get that.

And that tears me up inside.

Because I can't have the man that could hold me when I cried, love me when I was scared, and make love to me when I was cold.

Though I'm sure of what I feel
Never thought a love so true felt so unreal
And I'm a little afraid myself
But if you love me day by day
With an honest heart and just a little faith
Baby time will tell the tale

Don't promise me forever
Don't promise me the sun and sky
Don't pretend to know you'll never make me cry
Just hold me now
And promise me you'll try

Don't promise me forever
Don't promise me the sun and sky
Don't pretend to know you'll never make me cry
Just hold me now
And promise me you'll try

Just a little something I thought of. Hope you liked it!
