I had Options too

and I wasn't one.

It still haunts me to know that i've endured so much pain
but the one that hurt the most was probably when I wasn't the one they wanted.
I wasn't the one they decided to keep and then the nerve of HER throwing it in my face that she had options.

I had options too...but I had chose you.
Why didn't anyone ask me that?

Why was I the one you hid the world from
but gave her the world?
Why did you choose to rest your head on her shoulder
when my shoulder was offered 1st?

You were ready to start a life with her
while I cried myself to sleep.
The world kept spinning
and yet you still stood so tall.

I was waiting for you to fall..

Today I write about my pain because I'm not
afraid to share my story anymore.
Because I'm not afraid to admit that you
terrified me to love again, and that the pain still stings.

But then again.....

I don't love you anymore
I love him
He doesn't hide me from people
and he gives me the world.
My trust issues have improved but I still need work.
I'm not second anymore...you probably are to her though.

I had options too..
