Played For A Fool

Your heartbeat
Your soft voice
Your dark curls
I had no choice

But to fall for you
Come unglued
Get more than hooked
When you were in my view

Kiss my scars
Brush my tears
Fix my wounds
Erase my fears

You were like no one else
I'd ever known
So honest and kind
You made it so hard to frown

Warm lips
Cold hands
Sparks in the air
Rain pouring in the stands

That chilly football game
We spent it sopping up rain
Crying and laughing
Like time wasn't passing

Like she wasn't there
Like you didn't care
Like I was the only one you loved
Like you were the only one who cared

It seemed that way
Standing there in that storm
All alone in the crowd
Solitude being worn

But it was an illusion
All lies
False hope
In your eyes

Because you loved her too
You did all along
I knew that from the start
And just hoped you'd prove me wrong

Returned Love... Not

I had your back, Year through year. You didn't have mine, When I shed one tear. I held your hand, Day after day. But when I frowned, You didn't stay. I caught your fall, Week through week.

You are the sunlight, the starlight and the moonlight. You showed my hopelessly blind eyes sight. You're a blazing fire in my world of darkness and desolation.

The Story Of You And I

I remember the look you gave me when our eyes first met, like a child examining a present she couldn't afford or an artist falling in love with a painting she never thought she'd complete.

Unforgotten Love

You make my heart heat up. And quicken in pace. I'm nervous and lovesick. And adoring the chase. You looking my way. Makes me hide my grin. And I secretly dream. Of your touch on my skin.

Finished

I give you my all and it's not enough,. You're love for me is just a bluff,. Poured my heart and soul into loving you,. Hoping just one day you'd love me too,. That hope has turned to ashes,.

Give Up

Do you think that because you gave up on me, That I have forgiven. Haven't you realised how much pain I am in. To love somebody wholly, And to be neglected by them is damaging.

Thank you kindly❤

@sage ....okay don't judge me here. I was being melodramatic. And overreacting. Sorry. But I wrote a pretty poem, and everything is fine now...I can't believe I'm showing you this. Gah. Don't hate me.
