Love Poem: I Want To

I Want To

I want to forgive you, I do
But I just can't
When I am reminded every day
That you broke every promise you made
When still I'm  here, holding on
To a hope that is all but gone

I want to hate you, sometimes
But I just can't
When I still look at you with eyes
That can't contain the tears I cry
Over how much I've hurt for what you did
And the pain inside I still relive

I want to love you, desperately
But I just can't
You truly don't deserve me to feel this way
After you threw my love and heart away
So much left to share with you
Now those dreams will never come true

I want to trust you, completely
But I just can't
Not like I did once, not long ago
Before you lied and cheated, no
I feel like a fool for having believed in you
Trusting you to be faithful and true

I want to be friends, perhaps
But I just can't
Because friends aren't afraid to feel
To share with each other what's real
And for you I will never accept
The choices you made, you will regret

So just what are we supposed to do?
I want to love you, I do...
