Love Poem: Crushed

Crushed

Crushed by the fickle hand of fate, trust collapses, crumbling away. And all that's left is fear and hate: love was lost to the games you play. I was blind, thinking I could see: so, I fell in love from the start. And every time you deceived me, I believed you, with all my heart. Castaway, with naught but my fears, you said last night was our last night. And I cried a river of tears, as you slowly faded from sight. Awakened by my nightmare screams, I question the future I face. And forsaking wishes and dreams; I feel broken and out of place.
