One-Sided Love
I fell for you.
Only you.
You returned that feeling,
oh so long you returned the feeling.
You never once lost love for a second.
Until you met her.
You gave her what I begged for.
You gave her more love,
more attention,
then you gave me.
I begged the universe,
“Please keep him in my life,
I need him, I love him.”
But in the end,
you left me,
for her.
You lost the feelings you had,
that you so happily returned before.
