I Love Him But He Does Not Love Me

I love him but he does not love me
Although he  once seduced me with his art
His    complex face I still do wish to see
I love him  yet but he does not love me.
I puzzle over this anomaly
And wish the grief of lies  to leave my heart
I love him but he does not love me
From his seduction ,I in pain do smart.

I detest him  yet for I was then unknown
He hung on me the clothes of his desire
And when I called him once on his i phone
He  labelled me a whore and  quite  unknown
His fantasy was not one I could own
Tried,judged ,condemned to perish in his fire
I detest him ,  hate him for I was newly  known
And knowing me, he sent me to my pyre
