Some die looking for a hand to hold

When do you know it's enough?
Enough is enough?
Is it when she strings you along and you finally realize it?
Or is it when you can't seem to do anything right anymore.

Is it when you are stood up for the tenth time?
Or is it when you set yourself on fire to keep her warm?
Is it when you text him 20 times with no response?
Or is it when you get tired of his excuses with no apologies?

When do you decided that you won't get any more hits?
Is it after two years of being together?
And you haven't talked in months?
Or is it when she finally admits she has no one special in her life
When you are still there?
Is it when the last make out seemed reckless?
Or is it when he no longer calls your babe!
Or holds your hand in front of his friends?
Don't lie that you don't feel it
Cause the neglect cuts deep
Like a fiery penknife through your throat
And the wonder of ever having something better
Haunts your very existence
Your every breathe
Threatening your last heartbeat
When do you know it's enough?
That you deserve better.
