Grand Rising MP ❤️🖤💚

LMBO... This is so me😅

I’m still upset

I’m still upset….
Tears rollin…
I just write about this…

I’m not alone
In this situation
Who’s been cryin
Who asked for loyalty
Who never said you’re cheatin

But where is the being faithful?
Someone who tries to tell their
Significant Other that you need to tell others
That you’re theirs….
What’s wrong with that?

It bothers me so much
I wanna cry again…
It really bothers me like
Right that there

Makes me wanna give up…
Makes me not wanna love anybody
Anymore……

I love that person so much it hurts….
