But You Didn't

You told me to organized myself,

By making a list of my own spending

By making an agenda

By attending every class I have

And I did.

You told me to eat twice a day,

Scared that I will get sick

Because here I’m concerned more about my money

Than my health

And I did.

You told me to love you,

Make our relationship real again

For the world to know we still have each other

Save our photographs in my wallet

To contact you when I had the chance

To make you smile

And I did.

I wished you hang on to me,

To forgive my childish manners

To absorb my explosive emotions

As always

Waited for me to come back home

Had a little faith on me

But you didn’t.
