I broke my rules for you

I broke my rules for you
I don't regret any of it ,
but why do you start a fire when you don't want to feel the heat
why did you make me feel like you liked me
when you were here to play games

I lowered my bar , because I thought you were different
yes ,you said you were different ,
and acted different that I fell for your tricks
and I let you in ,
and you treated me right for three weeks
then you changed ,you no longer called neither did you receive my calls
late replies , leaving me on read
doing everything that hurt me ,
and you didn't care anymore
and talks of me being the bad guy and you can't stand me
that I should find a better man ,,
okay,so I sticked to you hoping the man I first met would come back
the man I loved ,the man who made me this crazy in love
and you continued with the disrespect
and served me more disrespect on my plate until I couldn't take anymore
until I chose myself , and decided to forget about the man I thought you were
and I left ,hurt and broken feeling worthless and stupid
but I still cherish the days when we went out
the days you made me happy ,,but it's all gone now
I have myself now ,, thankyou for making me realize that it's me first before the world
