Best of Me

I feel the love I once had has been sucked out of me
 like water from a cloud, I feel nothing 
 it is not me to hide in the dark with no light to be seen
 but I have given you the best of me
 what have you given me
 I wear my heart on my sleeve & you take advantge 
 but I won't change, not for you 
 today I realise
 I'm not your fool 
 & I don't need you like you think 
 you need me, is what I now see...

Very powerful words. I have not used poetry to this end in my brief time of writing, but I do find this very powerful.
