What is it you acquire?

Had you told me anything at all?
Had you told me what I'd done?
Then this emotional war,
Wouldn't have begun.

But instead you told me nothing.
Neither a hint nor a clue.
So I still have to wonder,
If it was me or if it was you?

I still don't know what or why it was,
That you wanted to break up with me.
But since you didn't say,
Every bad thing I hear I have to believe.

I really hope you understand,
What it is I'm trying to do.
You hurt me seriously deep down,
And that I must prove to you.

I don't hate you for what you did.
You can do as you desire.
But tell me, when you end it like that,
What is it you acquire?
