Swore You Loved Me

Folder: 
Alone In Love

I love you, I really do.

I love you, I swear I do.

This is what you said,

You swore your love to me

and I believed it all was true.

But I must be stupid

to have believed you.

You swore on it and never did,

I hate you for your lie.

You swore you loved me

as I fell for you

and now I've fallen hard

the pain from the fall

has made me crawl

out from under your shadow of lies.

You swore you loved me and sadly I still do,

because I really swore my love to you.

Beautiful heartfelt poem, so true of so many people, I never want to hear promises again, just take one day at a time. I hope your heart heals soon. Look after yourself.

Take care
