The Reason I Left

Hide thy love from me You will be forgotten Cheated on me with another Your ways were so rotten I loved you with all my heart Now I have no reason to see your face Your mind is lost, your heart is cold I call you Mr. Disgrace You say you love But only your spirit was inside of me I never got the love i wanted But now I can finally set myself free. You say you're too good for me But that is where you're wrong I finally found another And its their heart where I belong You never knew how much I cared Gave you all I could plus all I shouldn't You made a promise to me Trusted you even though you wouldn't But no more will you hurt me My heart has been beaten to death I'm finally done with the pain CAuse this is the reason why I left

Wow, I'd give that a ten if possible. I have to find a poem that represents the word "reason" for my comp class I would love to include this poem in my focus on the word. It takes away one task with ease and beautifully frames the 22 years I poured into a loveless marriage that left me feeling beaten and used. Thank you.
