Love Poem: I Fell, He Betrayed

I Fell, He Betrayed

I still wake up every morning with thoughts of him
Wishing I could tell him my dreams
Then I remember all that happened
And I know he'll never deserve me
It hurts to know it turned out like this
I fell in love and it was just a tease

The day I needed to let him go
To cut off all contact and move on
Was one of the hardest days of my life
But now I know I was just being walked on
Had he been sorry this might have been different
But I can't entertain such thoughts

He acted hurt too but he never said sorry
The apologizing was left on my back made me feel like I was no good
A bad friend only good for his attacks
Then the crying and begging would begin
Please don't leave, he'd say, please take him back
But not this time, he just didn't care

And I just can't anymore either
So much pain and stress, so much hell
We had our good times, memories
The beginning was the best, I fell
Trusted and loved and believed in him
Then the drugs came and he taught me well
What comes first ever in such a love
So I forgive but never will forget this hell
