Done

The words "I Love You" spring from your lips,

But, actions show that I'm barely a friend.

Your "Love" poisons in little sips,

The way you act is hard to defend.

Why do you even bother to pretend?



I have tried and tried and tried again.

I just don't know what you want me to do?

You are as stable as quick sand.

I gave my heart and soul to you.

It kills me to say, we are through.
