My Love

You did everything to pursue my love
You promised that we were meant to be two
You said we fit like a hand in a glove
You said I would feel everything so true
You promised you would hold me up above
You said your love would always remain new
You said all you give me would be enough
You did everything to make me love you
When all my love you carelessly spent
And threw it back at me, you even dared!
The endless retorts, you didn’t relent
And tossed away, all that we ever shared
My pain is real and that’s what you meant
Showing me disdain like you never cared.
