Love Poem: Who Knew

Who Knew

I sit and wonder each and every day,
Why with you did I stay?

Was it truly because
It was just the way it was?

Maybe it was because I felt love does endure.
Or maybe just maybe I was not so sure.

Maybe it was my price to pay,
For getting my children taken away.

Maybe being black and blue,
Could match the emotional pain I was going through.

Maybe it can never be enough,
You see this pain is just too rough!

I tried to change you and me.
For now I know that was never to be.

Now the time has come to let you go,
But the pain of you is all I know.

The good times that we had,
Will always be outweighed by the bad.

I wish I could forget us even from the start,
But unfortunately you still have a piece of my heart.

I never thought I would have this to say,
You are the one regret I have to this day!

You cost me more than heartache and pain.
You made me feel so insane.

I may never know all my reasons for staying,
As to this day I am still paying.

I have now walked away from you,
To try to start life anew.

The day has come, who knew?
The day that I regret ever loving you.
