Because I Loved You

Because I loved You Because I loved you - you took advantage of me. Because I loved you - you made a fool out of me. What did I do, to deserve all this? If you didn't love me - you should've said so. You didn't and my life was destroyed. Because I loved you - I gave you my love. I did what you told me - thinking it right. What happened later, just broke my heart. You accused me falsely of things I didn't do. You didn't believe me, when I said it wasn't true. I cried many tears for days and many nights, thinking what happened to the love that I thought was so right. What happened to the love that we had? I left and decided to let you go free. The day will come and you will remember all the wrong that you did to me. I have now forgiven you - it wasn't your fault. I was the one that loved you. You were just playing a part. A good actor - you turned out to be. Because I loved you - I'm writing these words. Don;'t feel bad - it will do no good. When we can't love someone - it isn't our fault.....

This is a very special person... we can either continue to hate, or forgive, those who have harmed us. I'm glad she decided on the latter course. Well done Lucilla! Best wishes, Keith

A heart felt poem full of pain and yet no anger. Full of passion and caring all captured so well in your words. Very well written.

Lucilla, dear, this is a very good one and I hope you got over this person. I liked how you said "it wasn't your fault. .....you were just playing a part." I think life throws us into such circumstances where one of the partners is indeed playing a part in the end. This poem shows great understanding of a failed relationship.
