PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I treated you like a jewel

And you played me like a fool

When we’re a school

You dis me for your friends

Couldn’t believe the message that it sends

As my heart bends and breaks

My hands begin to shake

My head begins to ache

I don’t know why you treat me so bad

It makes me so mad

But I guess inside I’m just sad

There’s nothing more to make you see

How much you really mean to me

I try so hard to get through to you

Now I realize

That on the inside

You’re just a player of hearts

And once the game starts

It rips out my heart

To know all I was from the start

Was just a toy

For your joy

But now I’ve worn out my use

Like a battery with no juice

You throw me away as if I was never there

Like you don’t even care

You swear you didn’t know

You were hurting me

You could never know how much this pain can be

But oh well fuck it

I just won’t be able treat the next like a jewel

Cause I don’t wanna be the fool

You ruined it for all

Because now every time I take a fall

I’ll make sure it never happens again.

And it won’t.
