rhyme



look closely, I lost my happy weight
nothing but bones left and half eaten cake
nothing crazier than the man who made you feel ugly
tell you to come over and stay late
i used to love him till it hurt
loved him till it felt like work
no pay, no vacation
nothing but sick days and faking
sat at my desk with false hope and real tears
more hickeys than passion 
those lonely nights add up to lonely years
everybody keeps reminding me i'm skinny
yeah, i lost 200 pounds of man
dark beard, skin like henny
lightheaded with woe 
getting high from the low
passing him in the street like i don't love that n..gga, so!?
kept frontin like i aint pray for him at night
like i aint call his name to the sky
grabbed a star from the moon 
just to bring me some light 
they don't tell you that love makes you mad 
they don't tell you that with all the love out there, there's nothing like the one you could have had
they don't tell you that
cuz nobody wants to tell you he ain't coming back
