Love Poem: The Scars On My Heart Came From People Who Said They Loved Me

The Scars On My Heart Came From People Who Said They Loved Me

The scars on my heart came not from the enemy
The scars on my heart came from people who said they loved me

Knowing the truth
Hoping the youth may see the irony
Some know how to handle love from a distance and
Some don’t know how to handle love when it is close up!
When the shadow hits the light
Real intentions are exposed that lived in the night

The enemy is easy to handle
But often the one closes to you
Will dismantle your heart!
Then you will see and know
That many of the scars on your heart
Came not from your enemy
But it came from people who said that they loved you!
