Plastic Love

What you showed me felt so real. I couldn't tell the difference whether if it was true or not. My mind and body were attached to you and you made me feel so wonderful. I was so happy. Then... I realized that what we had was all a lie. A plastic love. Shiny on the outside but empty on the inside. All you wanted me was for one purpose only. You broke my heart. Took it apart and stomped on it. Dying in my sorrows.... How do you think I feel? Knowing that you never cared. It hurts me so much and even now it still does. I can't believe I let you take advantage of me. I'm so enraged but yet so sad. I hate this feeling. So lonely and bottled up inside. Plastic love.... Who could have know? Your mastermind plan worked. I was foolish enough to fall for it. There are days where I just long for your love and there are days where I just want you dead. What you did to me was cruel. I never thought that I would make the same mistakes. But... I did. That day will come when I find love in someone else. Other than you and this time I won't be so foolish.

Megan, this is a well-written verse on a loss of love. Or should i say a gain of experience? Sorry you got hurt. It can be a burden to carry this but it will pass, right? Yes, it will and as you said in your last stanza, you will not let it happen again. Just don't close your heart's door. Have a great week! Always, Annalise
