I Was Fooled

You saw me as a piece of paper,
Just the one you wrote and disposed;
I was fooled to feel I wasn't felt free,
And didn't belong to your heart.

I came with the mind to build a nation,
My plan all days, and night vanished,
As you preferred to change the motion;
Just because I was the lord of the ring. 

My heart battered for the break, 
Pillow soaked by blood of my tears;
Upon all my daily trials,
That what broke me would make me.

You've lost a treasure you won't regain,
A diamond in the rough;
A necklace you should have shown people,
That how happy you are with.
