I was in to you
You enticed me with your smile
Who knew you were leading me on all the while
You were the perfect perception of what I thought I needed
If you were after my heart, you definitely succeeded
I was ready to say those words to you
The ones I said I would never say
I was ready to give you myself completely
But then you showed me yourself
I saw that you didn't feel exactly how I felt
The tower I built of love slowly began to melt
So I gave up, feeling that there was no purpose
My feelings were deep, yours never left the surface
Why would you let me enjoy you?
Only to confide in me then hide from me
You knew exactly how I felt
It wasn't hard for you to see
You gave me a reason not to trust love
I actually thought you were a gift from above
And you wonder why I find it hard to show affection
Maybe because I'm not one to deal with rejection
I'm learning to leave love alone
But it's hard to take love back
So easy to give away though
But seems so hard to contract
I can't believe you have me writing this shit
Brokenhearted like some kind of poet
When really its not at all worth it
But yet, I truly felt you were so perfect
You left a scar on my fragile heart
Blinded by love, you left a lasting mark
Somehow I thought the bond we shared was true
But you showed me yourself....and now I can see you
wow this poem is very good. I like it because I know exactly how you feel. I just recently went through the same thing with my 1st heartbreak. Its difficult and I felt like nothing was going to make anything better. But he now is my best friend and he is there for me and we still love each other just not in the relationship way. Very good piece keep up the good work your really talented.
