How Could You

how could you say you love me
and crush my heart so bad
why would you treat me so
and make me feel so sad
i don't deserve what you give
i've given you my body and soul
but yet you walk all over me
and my heart has to pay the toll
i surrendered to you fully
you thought i'd forever be around
but now i'm saving my mending heart
for the new love that i've found

I had already made a comment but got booted grrrr. I know I said I like this poem. It is a sad theme, but well written. I relate too much to the theme I think. Great work.

This sounds like a song. If you repeated a few verses, maybe it could be. I like it.

Dear April, Well, Spring is around the corner your name will find its mach Not only in name but also in love! Of course you know that is better to love And lose than not to love. Consider also that your new love, who is around the corner, Never would be possible if the old one was still there! Your poem, although painful It screams with beauty and love! Wonderful!
