Poem Title:
Poem
I was so happy just to be your friend and be there whenever you needed me That wasn’t what you had in mind and your selfish intent was something I couldn’t see You made it a point to show me a different side of you this time around You played your role so perfectly making sure to create a love in me that was truly profound I knew all of your secrets and bad habits but that didn’t push me away I told you I’d be there for you and by your side is where I intended to stay You would tell me that we were meant for each other and the others were just for fun I wasn’t ready to commit anyways so I stuck around when in reality I should have run I remember when we were finally intimate and how nervous I was as if it was my first time I was so in love and expected more but the encounter left me feeling used and covered in grime I still stuck around because I had promised I wouldn’t leave and truthfully, I knew you would always own my heart These feelings would stay engraved in me whether we were together or apart Everything was going so well and you hinted at us finally being together like we always should have been I was more than happy to accept you as you were and let the rest of our lives begin Of course, you did what you always have and completely flipped the script Suddenly you had someone and my heart was left exposed, broken and, ripped Once again, I chose to stay because regardless of our relationship status, I still immensely cared for you I vowed to be your best friend and find a new love but that made you mad because you just wanted to subdue This mind game went on for a while and I continued to endure the torture until you eventually just disappeared You had promised that you would always stick around but you threw me away and enacted what I had always feared You still pop in from time to time just to make sure I don’t have a chance to forget But I’m glad to say that you no longer have the same effect on me, nor do I feel any regret You were toxic and only cared about making yourself feel better, no matter what the cost I promise you that you destroyed every ounce of care I ever had and this tumultuous relationship will not be defined as a love lost
