Constance Gilmore Poet Rhyme

Emotional Death

You took advantage of my feelings
As if they never mattered
Knocking me down with each of your lies
Leaving my emotions bruised and battered
You knew how I felt about you
Yet your lies showed you didn't care
I had no idea that being with you
I had to constantly share
In my face, fate had us together
Behind my back, it was you and her
I thought we had a real friendship
Now I'm unsure at how I was so sure
The trust you earned is forever broken
Losing sleep because so is my heart
In some way, I thought we'd always be
But now, this is the time where I must part
Tears no more because I'm all cried out
Wondering why I'm so easily betrayed
Full of doubt and lead by pain
A bitter woman his actions have made
Tired of believing in liars
Whose truths come across as real
Words doused in harsh Novacane
My emotions are numb and I can't feel
I don't want to give up on love
But it seems like my only choice
Love hates me and I don't know why
There's nothing to say; I have no voice
I hope you had your fun with me
Destroying me with every single lie
I hope you take much pride in
Watching the last of my innocence die.
