Poem
LOVE FOR A STRANGER How can I love a stranger? Just when I laid my eyes on him Before even talking to him I had an immediate connection with him the moment we met A connection so strong that I was drawn to him in a way I never felt before As the days turned into weeks and weeks into months I experienced a love so deep, so strong yet so complex Just when I thought the world has nothing left to fuel the fire a stranger appears My flame burns more intensely than before It is staggering how you affect me Please do not let this end. I do not want this to stop. It is funny that someone who was just a stranger month ago can mean so much to me now Everything was going so well until you complete changed Everything I was afraid of happening, happened Our love slowly changed into hate You claimed to love me but in the end you were just using me You started to put me down Made me feel like I can not do anything Made me feel bad about myself You think you are always right that whatever you do is the right thing to do you made me feel it is me that is wrong and that I am always wrong You treat me so good one day and make me feel like I am on the top of the world and the next day you act like I do not even exist You always want to use me, manipulate me and take away my freedom I did not know what to do I had never gone through anything like this It confused me It made me want to cry, scream, let it all out, because it was killing me inside I believed it was his way of loving me I said I was happy to be his girl If only I knew those words were not my own I realized if it is destroying me then maybe It is not true love I was setting myself on fire to keep him warm I am worth more then excuses. I am worth more then this unhealthy , disappointing situation. I did not want us to become strangers again but You left me no choice I watched us grow From strangers to friends From friends to lovers And then to strangers again We began with a simple 'HI' but ended with a complicated 'BYE'
